Shopping in grocery stores used to be very different than it is today. Customers would hand a list of items to a clerk. The clerk would gather the items and put them in bags. Sometimes a clerk would deliver the groceries. In 1910, Clarence Saunders changed the way grocery stores worked. He opened the first self-service grocery store. Saunders named his store the Piggly Wiggly. At the Piggly Wiggly, customers could walk up and down aisles to gather their own items. Clerks were only needed to bag the groceries and collect payment from customers.

Answer: Saunders designed a new kind of grocery store.

Explanation:

Let us look at all the different options given. We can then use a process of elimination to see which one makes sense.

[✗] protested

-> "a statement or action expressing disapproval of or objection to something." (Oxford Languages)

-> Clarence Saunders did not protest a new kind of grocery store.

[✗] praised

-> "express warm approval or admiration of." (Oxford Languages)

-> There was no new grocery store for Saunders to show approval of, so this answer does not work.

[✗] located

-> "discover the exact place or position of." (Oxford Languages)

-> Saunders did not find where the new kind of grocery store was, he created it.

[✓] designed

-> "planned or conceived in detail or for a specific purpose." (Oxford Languages)

-> This definition fits what we are looking for.
