CHARLOTTE — Queens University of Charlotte honored Food Lion co-founder Ralph Ketner Tuesday night for a $1 million gift to the school.
Queens used the money to help pay for an upgrade at a campus auditorium, which now bears Ketner’s name. Part of his gift will go to the Levine Center, a health and wellness center on campus.
Ketner’s relationship with Queens began last year when he was inducted into the university’s Carolinas Entrepreneur Hall of Fame, along with Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson and Family Dollar Stores Inc. founder Leon Levine.
