1936: Grocery shopping was revolutionized thanks to a handy invention
In the 1930s, an Oklahoma businessman called Sylvan Goldman had a revelation. One day, he realized that women would be able to buy more goods at grocery stores if their baskets didn’t become too heavy to carry. What could he do to change that situation?
After years of hard work, Goldman found the perfect solution– the shopping cart. When this visionary introduced his fantastic invention to his supermarket chain, every other store wanted to implement it because it’d increase their profits. What a genius!
