(Bellingham, WA) -- Many Albertsons and Safeway supermarkets are about to be rebranded. Haggen Incorporated, which is based in Bellingham, Washington, has purchased 146 Safeway and Albertsons stores in Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada, and Arizona. The conversions are scheduled to take place over the next several months. A Lake Oswego Albertsons will be the first Portland-area store to become a Haggen when it's rebranded in mid-March.
