Not sure how far back they go but they are for sure still in business. There are a few around the greater Durango region except actually in Durango. I know of Safeway stores in Aztec, Cortez, and Farmington.
I like Safeways. They carry some items you can't find elsewhere in the area (like Stewart's soda). So if we're traveling on highway 550 to Albuquerque, which goes through Aztec and right next to the Safeway, we are sure to stop at the Safeway to stock up on Stewarts.
Here's a nice night shot of a modern Safeway Semi:
