Klamath Avenue Where 8th Street End Safeway Aims to Reduce Food Prices This Way As a distributor, Safeway does not control the whole sale prices of raw or manufactured foods and other products. With few exceptions Safeway buys currently at going market prices the kind and quality of products needed to supply the demands of the consumer - cus tomers of Safeway neighborhood stores. Thus, Safeway has no control over and cannot in fluence the prices at which it buys and which account for the largest part of the retail price. However, Safeway can and will contribute to reducing the cost of living by strictly living up to the following policies: 1. When merchandise is acquired ot lowered costs, Safe way will immediately drop its retail prices on its existing inventory to the new lower market. The inventory mark downs involved will be charged to profit and loss. 2. The Company's full resources and years of experience are Intensively aimed ot bringing about still further reductions of the in-between costs of distributing foods. This is the way In which Safeway increases its produc tivity with consequent benefits to consumers, producers, employees and stockholders, 3. Small profits on large volume will continue to be the keystone of the Company's operation. In 1946, net profits were 1 Vie per dollar of sales. Safeway maintains Inventories of a lew commodities which must b purchased during the harvest and stored lor later consumption. SAFEWAY STORES 'y---
