Warren, president of Safeway Stores, Incorporated, in the company's annual report for 1948 told stockholders that "irres- pective of general conditions, Safeway should strengthen its position in 1949." He emphasized that the company is in a posi- tion "to take full advantage of favorable supply and price situa- tions and thereby avoid loses which would otherwise accompany a falling market." Mr. Warren's note of confidence was based, le stated, upon the company's actions during the past year. "The company has reduced operating expense percentages, eliminated undesirable and unpro- fitable locations, installed addi- tional and more efficient equip- sent, and streamlined its buying and warehousing operations." All of these improvements, Warren's message reported, placed the com- pany in a position to forge ahead from both a financial and operat- ing standpoint. Retail sales figures for the past 15 years for both Canada and the United States were listed in the 1948 report. Retail sales as a per- centage of 1934 total showed a progressive increase for each of' I the intervening years in both [ countries. 1948 retail sales in the[ United States were 643 per cent I of 1934 retail sales. Canadian re- tail sales in 1948 were 802 per] cent of the 1934 figures, i The company had 2,103 retail stores in operation in the United States at the end of 1948 as com- pared with 2,251 on December 31, 1947. During 1948 the company constructed new retail facilities at locations where the potential vol- ume was sufficient to insure rea- sonable rental percentages over the lease term. A total of 19 re- tail store locations were complet- ed during the past year. Safeway plans to continue a moderate building program at lo- cations where the sales potential will be sufficient to insure a rea- sonable rental percentage. New warehouse facilities will be pro- vided where existing ones are in- adequate.
