NOTE 1 - GENERAL

General
-------

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
Shoppers Food Warehouse Corp. (a Delaware corporation) and its subsidiaries,
(collectively "Shoppers" or the "Company") for the 13 weeks ended July 28, 2001
("second quarter 2002"), the 26 weeks ended July 28, 2001 ("year to date 2002"),
the 13 weeks ended July 29, 2000 ("second quarter 2001"), and the 26 weeks ended
July 29, 2000 ("year to date 2001"). All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated. Shoppers operates in one business segment.
The Company is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of SUPERVALU INC.
("SUPERVALU").

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company as of July 28,
2001, and for the 13 weeks and 26 weeks ended July 28, 2001, and July 29, 2000,
have not been audited. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally
included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted from the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of July 28,
2001, and the results of its operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods
ended July 28, 2001, and July 29, 2000, respectively.

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
----------------------------------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Transactions with SUPERVALU
---------------------------

The consolidated balance sheet includes $41.0 million and $63.7 million due to
affiliates at July 28, 2001 and January 27, 2001, respectively. The amounts
outstanding consist primarily of amounts due to SUPERVALU for the purchase of
bonds, capital spending, income taxes, inventory purchases and general and
administrative expenses.

Forward Looking Statements
--------------------------

Statements in this report that are not historical in nature, including
references to beliefs, anticipations or expectations, are "forward-looking"
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such statements
are subject to a wide variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected including, without limitation,
the ability of the Company (as defined above) to open new stores, the effect of
regional economic conditions, the effect of increased competition in the markets
in which the Company operates and other risks described from time to time in the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company
undertakes no obligation and does not intend to update, revise or otherwise
publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements, which
revisions may be made to reflect any future events or circumstances, other than
through its regular quarterly and annual reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

Results of Operations
---------------------

RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER:
-----------------------

Sales were $243.0 million for second quarter 2002, compared to $225.0 million
for second quarter 2001, an increase of 8.0%. The sales increase was primarily
due to the opening of two new stores since first quarter 2001, as well as an
increase of 0.8% in comparable store sales.

Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased to 26.2% in second quarter
2002, compared to 25.0% in second quarter 2001. The increase is primarily due to
improved merchandising activities.

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased to
21.8% for second quarter 2002, compared to 21.0% for second quarter 2001. The
increase is primarily due to higher union health insurance expense in addition
to the impact of opening two new stores with less expense leverage.

Operating income was $10.5 million for second quarter 2002, compared to $9.0
million for second quarter 2001. The increase was primarily due to the increase
in sales and gross profit.

Interest expense increased approximately $0.1 million from $3.7 million during
second quarter 2001, to $3.8 million during second quarter 2002.

The effective income tax rate for second quarter 2002 was 48.5%, compared to
49.5% for second quarter 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to
increased taxable earnings in relation to the fixed amount of non-deductible
goodwill associated with the SUPERVALU acquisition.

Net income was $4.0 million during second quarter 2002, compared to $3.3 million
during second quarter 2001, an increase of 23.1%.

YEAR TO DATE RESULTS:
--------------------

Sales were $478.9 million year to date 2002, compared to $439.6 million year to
date 2001, an increase of 8.9%. The sales increase was primarily due to the
opening of two new stores from the prior year, as well as an increase of 0.9% in
comparable store sales.

Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased to 25.5% year to date 2002,
compared to 24.9% year to date 2001. The increase is primarily due to improved
merchandising activities.

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained
essentially flat year to date 2002 at 21.7% compared to 21.6% year to date 2001.

Operating income was $17.9 million year to date 2002, compared to $14.7 million
year to date 2001. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales and
gross profit.

Interest income increased by approximately $0.4 million year to date 2002 from
$2.2 million year to date 2001 to $2.6 million year to date 2002 due to an
increase in the outstanding balance of the note receivable.

Interest expense increased approximately $0.4 million from $7.3 million year to
date 2001, to $7.7 million year to date 2002, due to higher average borrowings.

The effective income tax rate for year to date 2002 was 50.1%, compared to 51.8%
for year to date 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to increased
taxable earnings in relation to the fixed amount of non-deductible goodwill
associated with the SUPERVALU acquisition.
<PAGE>

Net income was $6.4 million year to date 2002, compared to $4.7 million year to
date 2001, an increase of 36.9%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During second quarter 2002, operating activities generated net cash of $24.7
million, compared to generating $9.3 million during second quarter 2001. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in working capital of $11.5 million
for second quarter 2002, compared to second quarter 2001.

Investing activities used $2.6 million during second quarter 2002, compared to
generating $1.0 million during second quarter 2001. The change reflects lower
capital expenditures of $0.7 million. The cash generated in second quarter 2001
includes the receipt of reimbursement of renovation costs from a landlord of
$4.4 million.

Financing activities primarily reflect the payment to affiliated companies of
$22.7 million during second quarter 2002, compared to $9.1 million during second
quarter 2001.

The Company believes that cash flows from its operations as well as cash
provided by affiliated companies will be adequate to meet its anticipated
requirements for working capital, debt service and capital expenditures.

New accounting standards
------------------------
In June 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
SFAS No. 142 requires companies to cease amortizing goodwill that existed at
June 30, 2001. For the Company, this amortization of existing goodwill will
cease on January 26, 2002. Any goodwill resulting from an acquisition completed
after June 30, 2001 will not be amortized. SFAS No 142 also establishes a new
method of testing goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or on an interim
basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would reduce the fair
value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The adoption of SFAS No. 142
will result in the discontinuation of amortization of goodwill and goodwill will
be tested for impairment under the new standard beginning in the first quarter
of fiscal 2003.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which addresses financial
accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The
standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of
long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development
and (or) normal use of the asset. Statement No. 143 requires that the fair value
of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The
Company is required and plans to adopt the provisions of Statement No. 143 for
the first quarter of fiscal 2004.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The registrant's market risk exposure is not material. Interest on both the
Company's notes receivable and Senior Notes are at fixed rates. The market value
of the fixed rate notes is subject to change due to fluctuations in market
interest rates. The Company does not have any other financial instruments that
result in material exposure to interest rate risk.

included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been
condensed or omitted from the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements reflect all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of July 28,
2001, and the results of its operations for the 13-week and 26-week periods
ended July 28, 2001, and July 29, 2000, respectively.

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements
----------------------------------------

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 - TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Transactions with SUPERVALU
---------------------------

The consolidated balance sheet includes $41.0 million and $63.7 million due to
affiliates at July 28, 2001 and January 27, 2001, respectively. The amounts
outstanding consist primarily of amounts due to SUPERVALU for the purchase of
bonds, capital spending, income taxes, inventory purchases and general and
administrative expenses.

Results of Operations
---------------------

RESULTS FOR THE QUARTER:
-----------------------

Sales were $243.0 million for second quarter 2002, compared to $225.0 million
for second quarter 2001, an increase of 8.0%. The sales increase was primarily
due to the opening of two new stores since first quarter 2001, as well as an
increase of 0.8% in comparable store sales.

Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased to 26.2% in second quarter
2002, compared to 25.0% in second quarter 2001. The increase is primarily due to
improved merchandising activities.

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased to
21.8% for second quarter 2002, compared to 21.0% for second quarter 2001. The
increase is primarily due to higher union health insurance expense in addition
to the impact of opening two new stores with less expense leverage.

Operating income was $10.5 million for second quarter 2002, compared to $9.0
million for second quarter 2001. The increase was primarily due to the increase
in sales and gross profit.

Interest expense increased approximately $0.1 million from $3.7 million during
second quarter 2001, to $3.8 million during second quarter 2002.

The effective income tax rate for second quarter 2002 was 48.5%, compared to
49.5% for second quarter 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to
increased taxable earnings in relation to the fixed amount of non-deductible
goodwill associated with the SUPERVALU acquisition.

Net income was $4.0 million during second quarter 2002, compared to $3.3 million
during second quarter 2001, an increase of 23.1%.

YEAR TO DATE RESULTS:
--------------------

Sales were $478.9 million year to date 2002, compared to $439.6 million year to
date 2001, an increase of 8.9%. The sales increase was primarily due to the
opening of two new stores from the prior year, as well as an increase of 0.9% in
comparable store sales.

Gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased to 25.5% year to date 2002,
compared to 24.9% year to date 2001. The increase is primarily due to improved
merchandising activities.

Selling and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, remained
essentially flat year to date 2002 at 21.7% compared to 21.6% year to date 2001.

Operating income was $17.9 million year to date 2002, compared to $14.7 million
year to date 2001. The increase was primarily due to the increase in sales and
gross profit.

Interest income increased by approximately $0.4 million year to date 2002 from
$2.2 million year to date 2001 to $2.6 million year to date 2002 due to an
increase in the outstanding balance of the note receivable.

Interest expense increased approximately $0.4 million from $7.3 million year to
date 2001, to $7.7 million year to date 2002, due to higher average borrowings.

The effective income tax rate for year to date 2002 was 50.1%, compared to 51.8%
for year to date 2001. The decrease is primarily attributable to increased
taxable earnings in relation to the fixed amount of non-deductible goodwill
associated with the SUPERVALU acquisition.
Net income was $6.4 million year to date 2002, compared to $4.7 million year to
date 2001, an increase of 36.9%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

During second quarter 2002, operating activities generated net cash of $24.7
million, compared to generating $9.3 million during second quarter 2001. The
increase was primarily due to an increase in working capital of $11.5 million
for second quarter 2002, compared to second quarter 2001.

Investing activities used $2.6 million during second quarter 2002, compared to
generating $1.0 million during second quarter 2001. The change reflects lower
capital expenditures of $0.7 million. The cash generated in second quarter 2001
includes the receipt of reimbursement of renovation costs from a landlord of
$4.4 million.

Financing activities primarily reflect the payment to affiliated companies of
$22.7 million during second quarter 2002, compared to $9.1 million during second
quarter 2001.

The Company believes that cash flows from its operations as well as cash
provided by affiliated companies will be adequate to meet its anticipated
requirements for working capital, debt service and capital expenditures.

New accounting standards
------------------------
In June 2001 the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved Statement of
Financial Accounting Standard No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets."
SFAS No. 142 requires companies to cease amortizing goodwill that existed at
June 30, 2001. For the Company, this amortization of existing goodwill will
cease on January 26, 2002. Any goodwill resulting from an acquisition completed
after June 30, 2001 will not be amortized. SFAS No 142 also establishes a new
method of testing goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or on an interim
basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would reduce the fair
value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. The adoption of SFAS No. 142
will result in the discontinuation of amortization of goodwill and goodwill will
be tested for impairment under the new standard beginning in the first quarter
of fiscal 2003.

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 143,
"Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations," which addresses financial
accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. The
standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of
long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development
and (or) normal use of the asset. Statement No. 143 requires that the fair value
of a liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The
Company is required and plans to adopt the provisions of Statement No. 143 for
the first quarter of fiscal 2004.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The registrant's market risk exposure is not material. Interest on both the
Company's notes receivable and Senior Notes are at fixed rates. The market value
of the fixed rate notes is subject to change due to fluctuations in market
interest rates. The Company does not have any other financial instruments that
result in material exposure to interest rate risk.
