Safeway has undergone significant change since re e m e rging as a publicly traded
company in mid-1990. Three years after the initial public stock offering, follow-
ing a prolonged period of disappointing operating and financial results, a new
management team set out to transform the company from an industry laggard
into the preeminent food and drug retailer in North America.
