On Saturday, June 22, Safeway stores across Alberta joined forces to proudly host our 2019 Summer Food Fairs, Summer’s On.

Our Safeway teams put their best foot forward to celebrate the beginning of the season, creating a one-of-a-kind shopping atmosphere full of fun and enthusiasm for our customers. Excited customers enjoyed some our favourite seasonal products and tried a few fun new Compliments items. ​In addition to our own loved Private Label items, local suppliers were on-site to showcase many of their new products fit for summer family fun. And not only that, but our Starbucks teammates joined in on the excitement to sample four new products of their own.

Many stores also welcomed Special Olympics athletes to help kick off our national Special Olympics Check stand Campaign, running in stores across the country from June 20 – July 3. Stay tuned to Safeway Talks in the coming days as we share the campaign’s results!

Congratulations to our store teams for truly bringing the 2019 Summer Food Fairs to life! You delivered on customer service while showcasing some of our very best products – and you had some fun while you were at it! We loved seeing your expertise, passion and awesome displays on our Safeway Facebook group, Safeway Team: Connecting Our Stores, Our People, Our Communities. Great work, team!
