RBC Heritage

The RBC Heritage, known for much of its history as the Heritage Classic or simply the Heritage, is a PGA Tour event, first played in 1969. The venue has been the Harbour Town Golf Links at the Sea Pines Resort on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The Harbour Town course, which frequently appears on several "Best Courses" lists, was designed by famed golf course architect Pete Dye, with assistance from Jack Nicklaus. In 1972, the first two rounds were played on both the Harbour Town Golf Links and the Ocean course at Sea Pines, with the final two rounds at Harbour Town.

From 1987 through 2010, it was sponsored either by MCI (under both the "MCI" and "WorldCom" names) or its eventual purchaser, Verizon. In 2011, the tournament operated without a title sponsor. The Royal Bank of Canada will sponsor The Heritage from 2012 until 2016. It is currently organized by The Heritage Classic Foundation.

The Heritage Classic Foundation

The Heritage Classic Foundation, general sponsor of The Heritage, provides the financial stability, guidance, and direction to the tournament. After each tournament, the Foundation distributes revenue produced by the event to a wide variety of charitable organizations, universities, and medical institutions. In 2005, the Heritage Classic Foundation donated $1.55 million, bringing the total to close to $13 million since it was organized.

Héritage

Héritage was a banner of discount grocery stores owned by Provigo to market smaller supermarkets in Quebec. Created in the second half of the 1970s to open on original locations, the Héritage banner eventually began to replace some Provigo/Dominion locations in the 1980s after Dominion Stores entirely withdrew from Quebec. The years 1993 and 1994 saw a brief resurgence of new Héritage stores (many of them being in old Steinberg's locations).

The increasing popularity of the Maxi division coupled with the aging image of Héritage had Provigo reconsidering about the future of the chain. In 1995, Héritage was disbanded and its stores were either converted to Maxi or, to a lesser extent, L'intermarché brand.

The first two logos of Maxi used a similar font as Héritage's logo.
