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.
