Trader Joe’s
When it comes to convenience stores, there has always been tremendous competition. This is especially true in more densely populated areas. In 1967, a man named Joe Coulombe began stocking odd and rare food items to draw people away from 7-Eleven and toward his store in Monrovia, California. His strategy worked. Despite the fact that it became a household name, he sold the company in 1979. It is presently owned by Theo Albrecht, who also owns Germany’s Aldi Nord grocery chain. He was born into a wealthy family and is estimated to be worth more than $16 billion! Whoa.

Lucky Strike
Lucky Strike, popularly known as Luckies, appears to be the most popular American cigarette brand. People smoked the substance in the 1930s and 1940s due to its effective marketing strategy. This is why the brand became the most popular cigarette brand at the time. The company began doing business with a company called British American Tobacco in 1976. The American Tobacco Business and its subsidiaries, Lucky Strike and Pall Mall, were purchased by the UK company in 1994. Despite the fact that it has undergone numerous transformations, it is still considered a uniquely American brand. This is due to its popularity in popular culture. Mad Men highlighted the brand prominently!
