Product Details & Size Guide
Add a touch of Southern California retail history to everyday notes with this Fazio's Shopping Bag sticky note pad. The name recalls a grocery chain that began on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles in 1930 and later passed through a remarkable sequence of corporate changes. Fisher Foods introduced the Fazio's Shopping Bag identity in 1972, and the stores were sold to Albertsons in 1978. A useful desk companion for collectors, local-history readers, and anyone who enjoys a memorable regional brand story.
Shopping Bag Food Stores began in 1930 as a single grocery store on Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles, California. The company opened its first supermarket in 1933 and went public in 1954. In January 1960, Shopping Bag, then operating 38 stores, announced a merger with Vons, which had 28 stores. The combined chain would have been the second largest supermarket chain on the West Coast. The Federal Trade Commission challenged the merger. After two lower court victories for Vons, the U.S. Supreme Court reversed those decisions in 1966 and ordered divestiture. In June 1967, Vons completed the sale of Shopping Bag Food Stores to E.F. MacDonald. MacDonald later acquired 31 A&P supermarkets in Los Angeles and converted them to the Shopping Bag name. In 1972, MacDonald sold the chain to Fisher Foods, which rebranded the stores as Fazio's Shopping Bag. In 1978, all stores were sold to Albertsons, ending the chain's independent brand history.
