 PROFILE
The Albertson's family keeps growing. The #2 US supermarket chain (behind Kroger), Albertson's operates about 2,500 stores in 36 states across the US under names such as Albertson's, Acme, and Jewel. More than half of those locations are combination food- and drugstores (most with floral, bakery, and video departments). About 800 outlets are stand-alone drugstores operating under the Osco and Sav-on flags. Albertson's also runs 28 no-frills discount warehouse stores under the Super Saver and Max Food and Drug names. The company announced restructuring plans in July 2001 that would close 165 stores and cut 15-20% of non-store jobs. Supermarket mogul Theo Albrecht (ALDI, Trader Joe's) owns about 7% of Albertson's.
