With 1,323 stores in 10 provinces and thousands of wholesale customers, Sobeys has the largest end-to-end food presence in Canada. In business since 1907, Sobeys is headquartered in Stellarton, Nova Scotia and has operations across the country. As Sobeys continues to grow and expand, one thing doesn’t change - our time-tested approach to creating value for our customers and shareholders. Our success lies in over 90 years of superior customer service, excellent product variety and competitive operations. These basic concepts began when Frank H. Sobey and his father opened the first Sobeys store and are threaded through every aspect of Sobeys businesses today. From the storefront to distribution centres to the head office, they filter through every level of the company as we strive to offer our wide customer base a rewarding shopping experience. Every public company exists to create shareholder value. But at Sobeys, our efforts to build sustainable worth depend on meeting the needs of a wider group of constituents, starting, first and foremost, with our customers. Our vision is to make Sobeys the most worthwhile shopping experience in the marketplace by accurately identifying customers' preferences and efficiently meeting their needs. It takes skilled and dedicated people to do that, and the kind of motivation that only comes by making Sobeys a company worthy of their commitment. We also work openly and collaboratively with our suppliers to improve our offerings, lower costs and create a working relationship that is worthy of their very best resources. And finally, building sustainable worth depends on clear and consistent communication with each of our stakeholder groups, including the investors whose continued interest and support is critical to our success. We are a diversified food distributor committed to growth in all our market segments by consistently exceeding our customers’ expectations through the strength of our dedicated employees. ![]() Sobeys Atlantic In the Atlantic region, Sobeys operates 84 corporate Sobeys supermarkets, 49 Foodland stores, 23 Price Chopper stores, 123 Needs convenience stores and 63 Lawtons drug stores throughout Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island.
