  • Testimony of Karl Langhorst Director, Loss Prevention Randall's /Tom
    Testimony of Karl Langhorst Director, Loss Prevention Randall’s /Tom Thumb a Safeway Company before the House Judiciary Committee Crime Subcommittee’s hearing “Organized Retail Theft: Fostering a Comprehensive Public-Private Response” October 25, 2007 10:00 a.m. 2141 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515 Testimony of Karl Langhorst Director, Loss Prevention Randall’s /Tom Thumb a Safeway Company before the House Judiciary Committee Crime Subcommittee October 25, 2007 Chairman Conyers, Chairman Scott, Congressmen Smith and Forbes, and members of the committee, good morning. Thank you for the opportunity to testify before the Crime Subcommittee today on the growing problem of organized retail crime. My name is Karl Langhorst, Director of Loss Prevention for Randall’s/Tom Thumb of Texas, a division of Safeway. Safeway Inc. is a Fortune 100 company and one of the largest food and drug retailers in North America. The company operates 1,738 stores in the United States and western Canada and had annual sales of $40.2 billion in 2006. I have been invited here to share with you our experience with the increasing problem of organized retail crime (ORC). Retailers have always had to deal with shoplifting as part of doing business, but let me be clear, ORC is not shoplifting. It is theft committed by professionals, in large volume, for resale. It is being committed against retailers of every type at an increasing rate. Safeway estimates a loss of $100 million dollars annually due to ORC. According to the FBI, the national estimate is between $15-30 billion annually. Let me describe for you how sophisticated and organized these enterprises are.

  • Company Profile
    COMPANY PROFILE Market Position and Strategy Overview Albertsons and Safeway completed a merger on January 30, 2015, forming a combined company that is the 2nd largest supermarket chain in the U.S. The Albertsons network now spans over 2,300 stores across 35 states and the District of Columbia under 20 well-known banners including Albertsons, Safeway, Vons, Jewel-Osco, Shaw’s, Acme, Tom Thumb, Randalls, United Supermarkets, Pavilions, Star Market, Amigos and Carrs, as well as meal kit company Plated based in New York City. Together, the retailers net upwards of $59.9 billion in sales yearly and employ 273,000 people. Albertsons is backed by private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management, and is one of the two most active acquirers in the U.S. grocery industry along with The Kroger Co. Post-merger, Albertsons and Safeway created a single, merged management team to better compete against segment leader Kroger and discount rivals such as Walmart. It’s divided into 14 retail divisions, with headquarters based in Phoenix, Boise, ID, and Pleasanton, CA. While division- level leadership is largely responsible for its own sales and profitability, the corporate team serves to deepen relationships with national vendors, set long term strategy and provide data insights to individual chains. The decentralized structure allows the company to combine the local presence of its banners (many of which have long-running operations) with its national scale in order to drive brand recognition, customer loyalty and purchasing, marketing and advertising, and distribution efficiencies. In June 2016, the joint company completed the acquisition of Bellingham, WA-based Haggen, which was facing bankruptcy at the time.
