American influence
Originally we were a US
owned company called Safeway Food Stores Ltd. The parent company was Safeway
Inc of California.
Our first UK store was opened
in Bedford in 1962. Over the next two decades the company’s portfolio of
stores rose to 133, establishing it as a serious player in the booming
UK food retailing market.
