My first job was unloading trucks at Consumers Distributing in 1980. In 1996 the company closed down, I was the General Manager of a privately owned location, Whitby Store #308.
The two catalogues I have are the 1982/83 annual and the 1995 Superstore Catalogue. This was a special catalogue that carried special merchandise along with the regular lineup.

That was an awesome flash back to the past for me Mike. Thank you for making this
Made me feel a little bit younger watching it.
Wow!!
My first job (other than working for my parents) was at Consumers Distributing as well! It would have been in ‘82, back in CT.
I moved to CO in ‘84, where they didn’t have Consumers, and then when I moved to San Diego 4 years later I was surprised to stumble across a Consumers’ store that looked like it had just closed its doors. I had figured they had all gone under years earlier, as the one back home had shut down already. I had no idea they stuck around until ‘96. Maybe it was just in Canada they survived that long?
I’m sure I had a copy of that ‘82-’83 annual back in the day… ; )
