I trace my roots back to 1867, when two brothers launched a grocery business in Belgium with a lion as its logo — and to 1887, when a couple in the Netherlands opened a grocery store. These companies eventually merged, forming me. Today, with a market value recently near $30 billion, I’m a top global food retailer, with more than 20 leading local brands, including Giant, Food Lion, Hannaford, Stop & Shop and Peapod. I boast 6,700 stores worldwide and 370,000 workers, serving 50 million customers weekly. I raked in more than 62 billion euros in 2018. Who am I? (Answer: Ahold Delhaize)
