How We Started Family Video was started by Charles Hoogland in 1978. Mr. Hoogland inherited Midstates Appliance and Supply Co., the predecessor to Family Video, from his father, Clarence Hoogland who started the company in 1946. In the 1970s, Midstates Appliance literally got stuck with a large quantity of videos. It was suggested that they rent the videos, and the Video Movie Club of Springfield was born. The Video Movie Club was one of the very first video rental stores in the country and had no competition. The Club charged $25 to gain membership and $5 to rent a movie for three nights. The Family Video chain of stores evolved from this club. Family Video Today We are the largest privately owned movie and game rentailer in the United States and the fourth largest overall. Family Video employs over 4,000 people across 10 states, with over 400 stores. We are committed to growing our company.
