Show Bringing Outside DOLLARS to Utah Like most of the western ' states, Utah does not have sufficient population to con- sume all the food it produces. pro-duces. Consequently, Utah j needs all channels of distri- !, bution, inside and outside the state. j: With their outlets in other states, chain stores provide a direct method of distributing distribut-ing Utah products in distant ' j markets. ' j For example, one chain store Safeway in 1940 pur- 1 chased $8,031,611 worth of products from Utah farmers and livestock men. That same year, Safeway sold just 85,566,043 worth of goods to Utah consumers. - In other words, this one ; ! chain paid Utah producers j $2,465,56S more than the j total of its sales to Utah con- sumer5. That kind ot business is a pretty good thing for Utah, isn't it? UTAH CHAIN STORES i j, |
