Shoppers sold more than a quarter of a billion dollars of house-branded food in its drugstores stores across Canada last year. And Galen Weston, executive chairman and president, has told analysts that Loblaws will speed up the click-and-collect program it first began testing in the GTA 14 months ago. The online purchase and pickup scheme has been working well at stores like Loblaws on Redway Road. It is now in place at 39 stores and will increase to an unspecified number. Finally, Sears will turn over eight stores across Canada including three stores in the GTA to its competitor Leons. Sears has not been making money in these premises. The stores are in Mississauga, Brampton and Etobicoke.
