Partnering with a Purpose

We are passionate about tackling food waste and fighting hunger in our communities. Our approach is twofold: we strive to minimize our contribution to landfills while also supporting hunger relief efforts. 

We recognize that global hunger is a pressing issue, and that it requires sustained effort to make a meaningful impact. That's why we are committed to transforming the food system and doing our part to make a positive impact. We constantly seek out new ways to support hunger relief efforts and minimize waste in our communities. Whether it's through community outreach, staff training, or technology-driven solutions, we will continue to explore innovative ways to make a difference. 

For years we have teamed up with local food banks and pantries where we donate essential food and personal care items. We have started a food recovery program in our stores where we donate unsold food to local shelters and food banks in order to distribute food more efficiently and prevent waste. 

Our ultimate goal is to build a better, more sustainable food system that benefits everyone, and we believe that every small step we take can help make a difference.
