Safeway Stores, Incorporated to­

national nutritional awareness pro­
gram which will be seen by over 3
million people each day in the com­
pany's 1900 U.S. stores. Safeway’ *
N u tritio n Awareness Program
(S .N .A .P .) is an easy to use, easy to
understand in-store program de­
signed to provide consumers with
the nutritional information that they
want at the point of purchase.
“ We have seen a sharply in ­
creased interest in nutrition and
physical fitness,” said W .D . Lowe,
Division Manager and Vice Presi­
dent. " W e are already responding
to this need through our merchand­
ising and labeling programs and we
feel it’s important to extend our ef­
forts even further. Our customers
want to know more about the food
they eat and we want to provide it in
an easily obtainable and useable
form . The “ S N A P ” Program was
available in a ll Safeway Stores in
Oregon and Southwest Washington
on February 8, 1983.”
Safeway’* Corporate N utritio n ­
ist, Cherryl Bell, has developed this
nutrition program with the assist­
ance of a Resource Board of nation­
ally known nutritionists and consu­
mer experts. The in itial program
consists o f the following materials
all available at no charge in Safeway
Stores in the U.S.:
•A bimonthly magazine, f oods
Unlim ited, which will give general
food inform ation, feature recipes
with caloric and nutrient break­
downs and contain answers to cus­
tomer questions.
•N utrition awareness pamphlets
covering specific nutrition topics.
Two new pamphlets will be issued
each month giving consumers such
information as the sodium content
of foods and how to decrease your
salt intake; sample meal and snack
menus for children under 5 and how
to make mealtimes hasppy for them,
and how to obtain the 40-plus nutri­
ents that we need.
• In-store in fo rm atio n centers
containing these material* and with
customer comment cards prom i­
nently displayed.
“ This program is designed to be
responsive to consumers' needs and
it will continue to develop based on
the feedback we receive from our
customers,” concluded Lowe.
