This is a list of all chain grocery locations my research has uncovered in Fullerton, Brea, and LaHabra between 1925 and 1940 and between 1971 and 1975, compiled from city directories, telephone books, and other sources. There may be some omissions due to incomplete or missing data, etc. and I welcome suggestions and corrections.
