POLL: Is the Reign of Whole Foods Coming to an End?
Last week, we learned that Whole Foods is planning to open a cheaper chain of stores, targeting millennials and vying to compete with other affordable stores like Trader Joes. And today, the internet is abuzz with the news that a Wegmans grocery store is coming to the Brooklyn Navy Yards. This northeast chain is popular for its huge selection of prepared foods, discount wine, and combination of BOTH traditional grocery store items and organic products a la Whole Foods. With all of these new options that aren’t going to use up your “whole paycheck” in the pipeline, what do you foresee for the future of Whole Foods in New York?
