American Wholesale Grocers. Interiors of new IGA Foodtown store located at Park Ave. and Airport Way. The modern supermarket no longer just offered food, it also offered varieties- items to be used around the home. The Foodtown Varieties section has thread, yarn, sewing supplies, brooms, nylons, sunglasses, pictures, "bun baskets" and glassware. The variety portion was self service with shoppers using the same check out counters as the grocery store. (TNT 8/16/1955, pg. 7-10)
