The new self-serve, cash-and-carry concept of grocery retailing is a big hit with customers, who take advantage of quality goods at lower prices.
We are Loblaw. Since 1919, we’ve innovated the grocery retail experience to better serve Canadians.
Today, our goal is to be the best in food, health and beauty — to help Canadians Live Life Well®. We make good food affordable; health, beauty and wellness accessible; saving for the future possible; and essential style achievable. We’re guided by a shared set of values and grounded by our commitment to social responsibility.
