Safeway Accidents

Safeway operates over 1,000 grocery stores worldwide with 105 stores located here in Colorado. Safeway is owned by Albertson’s, Inc., which has almost $60 billion in annual revenue. Before it was acquired by Albertson’s, Safeway’s annual profit was over $9 billion. The grocery store industry is extremely profitable, which is only more reason why their stores must be safe for customers. Safeway, as with other grocery stores in Colorado, is subject to Colorado premises liability law and therefore has a duty keep its premises reasonably safe from dangerous conditions it is aware of or should be aware of. This includes slip and falls and other types of accidents.
