A Little Bit of Variety At the Local Market
Safeway (www.safeway.com) is located at 8925 Madison Ave. and 5450 Dewey Drive. Did you know that Safeway has actually been around since 1915! Founder M.B. Skaggs had purchased a small grocery store from his father; however, at that time it was "Skaggs" groceries. After quickly expanding with over 428 stores, Skaggs decided to merge with Safeway (formerly known as Selig) and has ever since proved to be successful. I have to say my favorite addition to the company is the online grocery delivery option. Perfect for those days you just don’t feel like going out. Currently the company has several positions to offer.
