Safeway, the Start-Up
In 1915, M.B. Skaggs, an ambitious young man in the small Idaho town of American Falls, purchased a tiny grocery store from his father. M.B.'s business strategy, to give his customers value and to expand by keeping a narrow profit margin, proved spectacularly successful. By 1926 he was opening 428 Skaggs stores in 10 states. M.B. almost doubled the size of his business that year when he merged his company with 322 Safeway (formerly Selig) stores and incorporated as Safeway, Inc. Two years later M.B. listed Safeway on the New York Stock Exchange. M.B. did not let the difficulties of the Great Depression dilute his pioneering focus on value for customers. In the 1930s Safeway introduced produce pricing by the pound, adding “sell by” dates on perishables to assure freshness, nutritional labeling, even some of the first parking lots.
Safeway Expands
M.B. Skagg’s value vision still drives Safeway, though on a dramatically larger scale. There are now over 1,600 Safeway stores across the US and Canada. These include 251 Safeway stores in Northern California, 279 Vons stores in Southern California and Nevada, 114 Randalls and Tom Thumb stores in Texas, as well as 35 Carrs stores in Alaska.

Frequently Asked Questions
Safeway Headquarters's Charity Vision
Strengthening our neighborhoods. Changing lives.
OUR MISSION
The Safeway Foundation supports causes that impact our customers' lives. Our stores provide the opportunity to mobilize funding and create awareness in our neighborhoods through our employees' passion, partnerships with our vendors, and the generous contributions by our customers. We focus on giving locally in the areas of health and human services, hunger relief, education and helping people living with disabilities.
HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
We sponsor organizations that are engaged in health research and nutritional programs. The Safeway Foundation's contributions finance medical research and programs that improve the lives of people living with cancer and neuromuscular diseases. Since 2001, we have donated over $200 million towards breast cancer and prostate cancer research alone. We believe that a cure will be found and that our careful allocation of funds will be a catalyst in the process.
HUNGER RELIEF
As one of the largest grocery retailers in North America, we find that supporting hunger relief programs is a natural fit for us. We're proud to be one of the largest contributors to food banks and feeding programs in the neighborhoods we serve. In 2012 alone, Safeway and The Safeway Foundation donated nearly $120 million in food products to hunger-relief programs in neighborhoods around the nation. Many of our local divisions contribute through their own signature programs to help fight hunger in their neighborhoods.
EDUCATION
Our commitment to education stretches back to the very beginnings of our company. Today, The Safeway Foundation supports numerous youth development organizations as well as a broad range of after-school and physical education programs. Safeway also participates in Electronic Scrip Incorporated's eScrip program, which enables consumers to direct a percentage of their grocery purchases to be donated to the school of their choice. In 2012, we donated over $20 million to local schools through eScrip, requesting that schools allocate 20 percent of our contributions to nutrition and fitness programs that help children stay active and healthy.
HELPING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
We have long supported regional and national programs that assist people with disabilities. In 2012 we donated $9.2 million to help people with disabilities. Beneficiary organizations include the Muscular Dystrophy Association, Easter Seals, Special Olympics, and a range of community-based employment and job coaching organizations focused on serving people with disabilities. Over the past two years, Safeway has also joined with Rebuilding Together to fund home and community center remodeling and projects designed to help local neighborhoods.
