I heard that Albertsons bought out Carrs stores several years ago(2010 or 2011). But it's a Safeway-Carrs these days. Not sure of the relation.
It has always been Safeway that bought out Carrs. Albertson's announced the purchase of Safeway over a year ago. When Carrs was owned by the Carr-Gottstein family it was the best!

I believe Carr's paid their employees better than Safeway.


Back in the early 80's when the employees of the distributer that handled Coke products went on strike, Carr's pulled Coke products from their shelves. When they finally settled Coke reappeared in Carr's. That move gained Carr's a lot of fans from union employees.
