History

The firm grew out of a small grocery store at 100 High Street, San Fernando run by Carlton K. Mack for the Allum family. By the 1950s, Mack had taken control of the whole business which he ran as Allum’s Supermarket from 1967 to 1988. It became JTA Supermarkets in 1988 and is a subsidiary of J.T. Allum & Co. Limited.[1][2]
