Limited Assortment
Traditional grocery stores carry 15,000 to 60,000 stock-keeping units (SKUs). Part of our mission to save Retail Partners and customers money is having an efficient model, so we offer a reduced SKU assortment of about 3,000 items to simplify operations and shopping experiences.
Award-Winning Private Label Brands
Part of our limited assortment is our award-winning private label brands. Save A Lot offers more than 50 high-quality, low-priced private brands. This provides customers with a better value for their money and Retail Partners better margins than the national brand equivalents.
Low-Cost Service Model
Our limited assortment means Retail Partners can run a highly productive, minimally staffed store. Save A Lot focuses on smaller retail footprints with smart layouts and minimal backroom warehouse space that result in lower rents than conventional grocery stores.
Everyday Low Pricing (EDLP) Strategy
Save A Lot can deliver market-leading everyday low prices over supermarkets thanks to our everyday low pricing (EDLP) strategy. We have a buying power of 1,000 stores, which allows us to offer savings on all of our products.
