Creating Healthy Communities

We’re committed to our community and to creating a better world.

We’re always looking for opportunities to help our neighbors, and to support organizations that are doing good in their communities. It also means stocking our shelves with ethically sourced items, such as fairly traded chocolate and bananas, and seafood harvested using only ethical labor practices. And it means ensuring our employees receive some of the best wages and benefits in the grocery industry while creating a workplace that welcomes those who share our vision of creating a better world. Whether near or far, we put people first. Because we aren’t just committed to our community — we’re owned by it.
