end safeway GE foods

by greenpeace
after the November 2001 victory in which Trader Joe's agreed to use non-GMO ingredients in its store brand products greenpeace is targeting safeway and shaw's supermarkets. safeways CEO is located in the Stoneridge Mall Rd in Pleasanton, CA. Thursday, March 14th is the West Coast day of action.
Safeway operates about 1475 supermarkets
across the United States and about 210 stores in
Canada. It is a national grocery chain selling
fresh produce, bakery items, major brand food
items and a wide selection of its own store brand
products.

Despite numerous requests to meet with them,
Safeway executives have refused to meet with
Greenpeace on the issue of its continued use of
genetically engineered food.

Safeway highlights its environmental record and
customer responsive, but has failed to address
the risks of GE food to the environment and its
customers.

Safeway also owns Dominick's Supermarkets,
Genuardi’s Family Markets, Randall's Food Markets
and Von’s.

Safeway’s store brand products account for
about 25% of their profits, and their brands
include: Safeway, Safeway Select, Verdi,
Lucerne, Mrs. Wright’s.
