Starting out selling tea and coffee, it eventually became "the Walmart before Walmart". The world's largest retailer in 1930, it captured 10% of all U.S. grocery spending by the 1940s. Name this chain store.
Answer A&P
A&P was short for the Great Atlantic and Pacific Tea Company, and was founded in 1859, just a year after Macy's. Amazingly, for 60 years, from 1915 through 1975, A&P was the largest grocery retailer in the United States.
