On the basis of the above stipulations and agreements and upon the entire record in the case, the Board makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT 1. THE BUSINESS OF THE RESPONDENT . The respondent, an Illinois corporation with its principal office at Chicago, Illinois, is engaged in the retail grocery business. It operates a chain of approximately 1,205 retail grocery stores, of which approximately 844 are located in Illinois, 15 in Indiana, 74 in Iowa, 8 in Michigan, 121 in Minnesota, 13, in North Dakota, 10 in South Dakota, and 125 in Wisconsin. The stores in Minnesota, Michigan, and Wisconsin are operated through subsidiary corporations. The respondent operates a place of business at Chicago, Illinois,. herein called the plant, with which the present proceedings are con- cerned, at which it is engaged in the warehousing, storing, packing, repacking, and distributing of foods and grocery products, and in the preparing of many food products by baking, preserving, canning, bottling, pickling, and other processes. The plant is the principal point of distribution for other warehouses and retail stores owned, and operated by the respondent. In the course and conduct of its business and in the operation of" its plant at Chicago, Illinois, the respondent causes and has con- tinuously caused approximately 65 per cent of the foodstuffs and grocery products of all kinds stored, packed, or processed at the plant to be purchased and transported to the plant from and through. States other than Illinois, and from foreign countries, and causes and has continuously caused approximately 10 per cent of the food- stuffs and grocery products of all kinds stored, packed, processed, and produced at the plant to be sold and transported from the plant to the respondent's warehouses and retail stores located in States. other than Illinois. The respondent's gross sales for the fiscal year ending December 31, 1937, were approximately $62,100,000.
