Product Details & Size Guide
GhostCorp Apparel - resurrecting iconic corporate ghosts.
Start the day with a nod to a pharmacy name that grew from one Southern California beginning into a regional retail story. Sav-on was founded in San Bernardino in 1945, reached 100 stores by 1975, and experienced changing ownership and store identities before its name returned in 1989. This ceramic coffee mug connects a familiar brand with the history of American drugstores, making it a thoughtful choice for former customers, pharmacy enthusiasts, and collectors of regional retail memorabilia.
Sav-on Drugs began in San Bernardino, California, in July 1945, founded by Christian J. Call. It grew into a Southern California pharmacy chain, reaching 100 stores in 1975 and 141 by August 1980, with locations in California, Houston, and Las Vegas. The Jewel Companies acquired Sav-on in November 1980, bringing it into the same corporate family as Osco Drug; Sav-on became Osco's Western Region. American Stores acquired Jewel in 1984 and changed Sav-on stores to the Osco name in 1986, but restored the Sav-on Drugs brand in 1989. The company expanded its California operations through acquisitions, including CVS stores in 1992 and Clark Drug stores in 1995. Albertsons acquired American Stores in 1999. In 2006, the sale of Albertsons divided its businesses: CVS Corporation bought the standalone Osco and Sav-on drugstores, which were rebranded as CVS Pharmacy by 2007, while grocery-store pharmacies retained the Osco or Sav-on names. SuperValu acquired Jewel, ACME, Shaw's, and other stores in the transaction, then sold its grocery operations to Cerberus in 2013. Sav-on Pharmacy continues as an in-store pharmacy brand in some markets.
