INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
The Management Compensation Committee
The Vons Companies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available
for benefits of the Vons Personal Choice Profit Sharing Plan as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the related statements of changes
in net assets available for benefits for each of the years in the
three year period ended December 31, 1994. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
benefits of the Vons Personal Choice Profit Sharing Plan as of
December 31, 1994 and 1993, and the changes in net assets available
for benefits for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 1994 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplementary
information included in Schedules 1 and 2 is presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
basic financial statements but is supplementary information
required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for
Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. The separate fund information in the
statements of net assets available for benefits and the
statements of changes in net assets available for benefits is
presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to
present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in
net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The
supplemental schedules and fund information have been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

VONS PERSONAL CHOICE PROFIT SHARING PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The Vons Personal Choice Profit Sharing Plan (Plan) is a
defined contribution plan sponsored by The Vons Companies,
Inc. (Vons or Sponsor) subject to the requirements of the
Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The
specific provisions of the Plan, including eligibility,
contributions, priorities upon termination and benefit
information, are contained in the Plan document which governs
the legal operations of the Plan.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
-------------------
The accounts of the Plan are maintained on the accrual basis
of accounting. Certain reclassifications were made to prior
years' balances for comparative purposes. Cash and
commercial paper include investments with maturities of less
than one year for which cost approximates market. Investment
contracts with insurance companies are valued at contract
value. Contract value represents contributions made under
the contract plus interest at the contract rate. Other
investment contracts contain a redemption feature such that
fair value approximates cost. Government obligations,
corporate debt and other investments in the Fixed Income Fund
account are valued at fair value, which are based upon quoted
market prices of the underlying assets. The investments of
the Equity, Multi-Asset and VONStock Fund accounts are valued
at fair value, which are based upon quoted market prices of
the underlying assets or upon the trustee's good faith
estimate of fair value.
Administrative Expenses
-----------------------
Certain administrative expenses incurred by the Plan are
absorbed by the Sponsor of the Plan. Such administrative
expenses are not significant to the accompanying financial
statements.
3. CONTRIBUTIONS
The Sponsor at its discretion determines the amount of its
profit sharing contribution which is allocated to employees
based upon their compensation. Employees designate their
profit sharing allocation as contributions to the Plan, as
contributions to the Sponsor's flexible benefits program, or
as taxable compensation. Those employees who elect to
contribute their profit sharing allocation to the Plan
receive a matching contribution from the Sponsor. Under the
flexible benefits program, employees may contribute any
unused amounts into the Plan. In addition, employees may
make salary reduction pre-tax contributions. However, these
pre-tax contributions are not matched by the Sponsor.
Participants designate the investment funds in which their
accounts will be invested. At December 31, 1994, forfeited
nonvested accounts totaled $86,408 and were used to reduce
employer contributions.
4. INVESTMENT FUNDS
The Plan offers four investment funds. The Fixed Income Fund
invests in investment contracts, United States and foreign
government obligations, corporate fixed income obligations
and money market investments. During 1994 and the latter
half of 1993, the Equity Fund was comprised of an investment
in a S&P 500 index fund consisting of common stocks of United
States companies included in the S&P 500. During the first
half of 1993, the Equity Fund primarily included investments
in common stocks of United States companies. The Multi-
Asset Fund includes investments in a commingled fund
comprised of domestic and international stocks and bonds
and money market investments. The VONStock Fund invests in
common stock of Vons purchased on the open market by a third-
party administrator.
5. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Fixed Income Fund, Equity Fund and Multi-Asset Fund may
use commonly structured derivative financial instruments
(including, but not limited to, futures, options, swaps, caps
and floors) to manage transaction costs, interest rate risk,
exchange rate risk and maturity risk. Derivative financial
instruments may not be used for the sole purpose of yield
enhancement and the use of leverage is not permitted.
6. INVESTMENT CONTRACTS
Interest rates of investment contracts range from 5.1% to
9.4%.

------------
Amounts allocated to withdrawing participants, representing
benefit claims that have been processed and approved prior
to December 31, 1994 but not yet paid as of that date, are
reflected as benefits paid on the Form 5500.
9. ALLOCATIONS AND VESTING
Investment income net of administrative expenses is allocated
to a participant's account monthly based on the proportion
each account bears to the total of all account balances.
Benefit payments are determined by the plan recordkeeper and
disbursed by the trustee after receiving notice from the
employer that a participant's beneficial interest has matured
due to death, disability, retirement, or separation.
Participants are 100% vested in employee contributions and
their profit sharing allocation contributed to the Plan.
Participants vest in the Sponsor's matching contribution as
follows:
Years of Percentage
Vesting Service Vested
--------------- ----------
less than 3 0%
3 20
4 40
5 60
6 80
7 100
10. PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the
Sponsor has the right under the Plan to discontinue its
contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject
to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of the Plan
termination, participants will become 100% vested in their
accounts.
11. TAX STATUS OF THE PLAN
The Plan has previously received a favorable letter of
determination from the Internal Revenue Service that the Plan
qualifies under section 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal
Revenue Code (Code) and that the trust is exempt from income
taxes under section 501(a) of the Code. Vons has applied
for an updated letter of determination for its amended and
restated plan. Management believes that the plan is designed
and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the Code.
