Theodore Pringle Loblaw and J. Milton Cork open the first Loblaw Groceterias in Toronto. They have a new concept in grocery retailing, combining self-serve and cash-and-carry. No longer will customers have to wait for a clerk to fetch items from behind a store counter. Loblaw and Cork are told it will never work. But sales grow as customers take advantage of better quality goods at lower prices. Charles B. Shields, another prominent Toronto grocer, soon joins the partnership. Within a decade, the Loblaw chain has grown to over 70 stores in Ontario alone.
