The worker at the local bread outlet store swears the breads aren’t "day old". She says it’s all as fresh as what you get at the supermarket. Is the decision made at the bakery, then? What criteria throws a loaf of bread from the grocery store to the discount store?

I normally shop at a regular supermarket where the brands are all the familiar brands we all know.
I went in one of those 99 cent stores the other day just to see what it was like. They carried several common non-perishable food items, but they were all brands I’d never heard of before. Brands that you never see on the shelves at a regular supermarket.
I am wondering: what’s the deal with these brands?
Are they subsidiaries of the same corporations and food manufacturers who make the well-known brands, but of a lower quality and distinctly marketed for discount stores like this?
Or are they completely separate companies from the companies that make the well-known brands?
