GROCERY RETAIL CORNER

Grocers shaping food access


About the Grocer Retail Corner (GRC)

The Grocer Retail Corner highlights community-based grocers who are expanding access to affordable, nutritious, and culturally relevant food in low-income, low-access communities across the United States. Through short profiles and firsthand stories, Food Systems for the Future Institute (FSFI) shares the voices and experiences of the grocers who anchor their neighborhoods, strengthen resilience, and support families every day.
