Last updated on 30 April 2025.
This is a list of all chain grocery locations my research has uncovered in Regina, Saskatchewan from 1924-1995, 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.
Please read about my methodology for more information about what I do and do not include.
Notes
- City directories were accessed at the Toronto Public Library, so several years are missing.
