I don't disagree with your assessment, but I think overall, the Albertsons-Safeway merger will open many more opportunities for Vitamin Fizz and Avanzar.

Quote: "The merger will create a diversified network that includes 2,230 stores, 27 distribution facilities and 19 manufacturing plants with over 250,000 employees across 34 states and the District of Columbia."

They are. The issue i saw was that the deal was made for Fizz to go into Albertsons, and then a week later, a bunch of them suddenly were called Haggen's. I'm hoping there wasn't a false showing to sucker Minerco. You should be able to find headlines reflecting the shock of the deal suddenly happening and how fast it happened. Not saying there was some conspiracy, just bad timing.

Haggen's is wanting to directly compete with the likes of Trader Joe's on a larger scale.
