Hi there,
The best thing to do when you are curious about a specific workplace is to contact them directly.
Here is the career assistance hotline for Giant Eagle:
1-888-892-2248
I wasn't able to find a declaration of hiring ages on their career site:

... but you may want to look through there all the same for some background info on the company.
I had never heard of the company prior to researching your question, but they seem like a big deal in certain parts of the country, so they probably share the hiring practices of other major grocery chains.
I admire your decision to avoid fast food, if possible, as a first job. It shows a little ambition and some creative thinking on your part.
Good luck, and remember: If you want to know if another company hires at 16, simply call them and ask the manager.

I live in Australia, but here pretty much any food or retail job would LOVE to hire a girl your age. Most jobs in fast food joints, restaurants, grocery stores and retail stores will want someone your age because of the small pay.
Apply EVERYWHERE! That's your best bet. Hand out resumes or ask for applications at video stores, fast food outlets, restaurants, grocery stores, clothing stores, and really anywhere else that has "work wanted" signs up.
The best way to make an impression is to walk straight in there, introduce yourself with a big smile and a confident voice, and say that you're looking for some work in the summer. Tell them your availability, leave your resume with them, and just be really lovely and polite.
Also, try networking. This means tell everyone you know you're looking for work next summer. If any of them hear of some work, you'll be the first one they think of.
If you live in America and you're hoping for next year summer, I'm not sure how many places would consider hiring you just yet. Hand out resumes anyway, but you may want to try closer to the summer as well (like a few months in advance).

well first off no jobs really hire teens at the age 15 your better off looking for a job at 16. once you hit that age you could look for jobs in malls and fast food places like taco bell and other in that sort good luck
