I believe that Lipton's was part of a group called Allied Suppliers which also included Gallbraith's Stores. Lipton's store in Campbeltown was a name change only to Gallbraith's as it was still owned by Allied Suppliers. James Gulliver's Argyll Foods took over Allied Suppliers in the early 1980's before it bought the Uk subsidiary of Safeway stores.
