During the first "milk price truce requested by Governor Lee, Safeway presented full cost and profit figures to Utah's Milk Study Committee . son-in-la- w, 6-- Jafmage stock-waterin- n. ft ctoss-countr- Ttfese figures included: analysis of cosh and profits In milk for the 4 wook period ending Juno 18, 1955. Not profit earned by the Lucerne Milk Company, A per-qua- rt could cut plant and delivery costs all along the line. Like any sound business operation. Lucerne is set up with an eye to tomorrow set up to handle greater volume with little increase in cost so that the per quart plant coat of handling milk would be lower. selling to Safeway, in 1954 totalling $137,326.00 a little over 26.11 on its investment. Lucerne's net profit earned through the first 20 weeks in 1955 totalling $52,575.08. The substantial profit figures showed that Safeway could tell milk for less, continue to pay top market prices and and still earn a reasonquality bonuses to dairy farmers able profit and good return on its investment. To fully appreciate how this could be done you should know how costs and profits are figured in milk. HERE ARE THE SIX BASIC COSTS: 1. The costs of the row milk itself; 2. The costs of picking it up; 8. The costs of pasteurizing, homogenizing, testing and packaging the milk; 4. Administrative costs; 5. Delivery costs; and 6. Advertising costs. Of these costs, the most important Is the and biggest price paid dairy farmers for milk. This price comes to almost 12 cents a quart on the milk you buy at Safeway. SHOULD THE PRICE PAID DAIRY AND WHAT ABOUT PROFITS? Like any business concern, Safeway works toward Increased business through greater volume and lower costs. As Safeways overall milk business increases per quart profits can be reduced end the difference passed on to you in lower milk prices. In the four week period (shown below) Safeways Lucerne cents per quart. Safeway Stores plant profits were received the standard margin of cents per quart as compensation for store handling and profit Lucernes May 21 report for the preceding 4 week period showed Lucernes cents per quart The higher profit for the profit of June period came from increased volume and lower costs. While these per quart profits seem low, they are substantial when based on volume. The 4 week period ending June 18, for example, brought Lucernes net profit for the first 24 weeks this year up to $68,205.65. So you can see how, in the future, Safeway could make a reasonable overall profit while still reducing its per quart profit, and passing the reduction on to you in lower milk prices. This, Safeway believes, is a sound way for milk bottlers and retailers to compete for your business. And it cannot hurt Utahs dairy farmers if the price they are paid for milk Is protected. Unfortunately neithor the Milk Study Committee nor tho legislative Council has recommended any positive action to protect dairy farmers. FARMERS BE REDUCED? SAFEVJAY'S Cost on Safeway says NO! Dairy farmers are essential to the welfare of Utahs citizens. TTiey must have fair prices to stay In business, and those fair prices must be constant. Quart of Milk Per this reason, it is Safeway'! policy (novor violated) PLUS bonusoe for la pay top markot pricos for milk quality. But as you can see this is a tempting place to cut costs and thats a way "price wars" begin. Thats why Safeway presented witnesses to Utah's Milk .Study Committee witnesses who testified, from experience, that where the price paid dairy farmers for milk is protected (by law or other regulation), price wars do not occur. For then, bottlers and retailers cannot pass the costs of competitive pricing back the easy way to dairy farmers. AUDITED FIGURES FOR PERIOD ENDING JUNE 18, 1955 Price paid dairy farmers. Including quality bonuses 2. Cost of picking up milk from farms, fat loss, finished produce loss 1 . plant costs, including laboratory, cartons, union labor, machinery, overhead and maintenance 5. Safeway has also gained efficiency through sale of milk through stores. Any other processor or distributor who wants to concentrate on this method of store sales and it is done in many parts of the United States of milk can have the same kind of efficient operation as Safeway. cash-and-car- Safeway is confident that in the future it will find many new ways to reduce costs. And, of course, any increase in volume sales (and thats what anv competitive businessman or concern works toward) 32100 Cents Cents 4 Administrative costs By reducing processing, delivery, and other service costs through greater efficiency and better methods of operation. FOR EXAMPLE: Safeway developed a method of welding its milk plant pipe lines so that the work (and costs) of taking the lines apart each day for cleaning would be eliminated and the cleaning job would be more complete ' more sanitary. This helps to reduce plant costs. Cents 3. All HOW, THEN, CAN THE COSTS IN MILK BE REDUCED? a 18100 Cants Delivery expense, including labor, trucks, ice, etc. 6.
