    Loblaws Supermarkets: A Brief History

    1919 - Theodore Pringle Loblaw and J. Milton Cork open the first Loblaw Groceterias in Toronto. They have a new concept in grocery retailing, combining self-serve and cash-and-carry. No longer will customers have to wait for a clerk to fetch items from behind store counters. Loblaw and Cork are told it will never work. But sales grow as customers take advantage of better quality goods at lower prices. Within a decade, the Loblaw chain has grown to over 70 stores.

    1928 - Loblaws Groceterias expands throughout Ontario and into New York State, Pennsylvania, and Chicago, Illinois. With 69 stores, a new state-of-the-art Loblaw Head Office and Warehouse is unveiled at Fleet and Bathurst streets, along today's Lake Shore Blvd, Toronto. Hailed as a model of efficency, the Loblaw Warehouse includes its own electric tram railway, giant ovens for baking a ton of cakes and cookies a day, huge drums for blending tea, and 22 thousand feet of pipes for refrigeration. Warehouse employees have their own bowling lanes and an auditorium for putting on plays.
