"The store", says Sam Steinberg, her son and now president of the firm, "was about the size of a small living room. The capital was small, the store was small, the staff was large -- my four brothers, my sister, and myself." Although the first store was typical of the time, narrow and deep, with the merchandise displayed in barrels, baskets, boxes and other bulk containers, it did not take long for Mrs. Steinberg and her children to build a Montreal-wide reputation for high quality food and service. In 1919 additional space was required, and Sam Steinberg negotiated a rental agreement for the next- door establishment. As the Steinberg boys finished schoo] and were old enough to take on additional responsibilities, it was decided to expand the business. Thits the first store became the first link in a chain. The Steinberg Story In 1959 Steinberg's Limited entered the supermarket industry in Ontario and implemented a continuous, far- reaching program designed to familiarize Ontario con- sumers with the Steinberg concepts of modern food retailing and dedicated customer service. Two years later the company embarked on a new venture, opening its first self-service department store. To-day, the com- pany's ten department stores in Montreal, Quebec, Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton, and its 142 super- markets account for annual sales totalling several hundred millions of dollars. Expansion and Diversification e In 1959, as noted, the company entered the Ontario market. e In 1961 the department store division was launched. ¢ In 1963 the company re-organized its scattered manu- facturing departments into one integrated manufac- turing division.

Currently Steinberg's Limited is entering the most exciting period of expansion in its history. Several supermarkets and department stores, a huge produce warehouse and an ultra-modern new bakery are now under construction. The company projects two distinct images: one, the Steinberg supermarkets, synonymous with fine food; the other, its department stores, epitomizing promotion- minded retailing. In the long run, the total Steinberg effort is geared to customer satisfaction. By making service to customers their primary concern, Steinberg's has developed a reputation for leadership which extends far beyond Canada's borders. Today the company moves ahead maintaining the objective of its founder: to supply the Canadian customer with the best quality of merchandise at the mast annanamical nrice at BOHR ACS) BENS.
