Sprouts is a grocery store that offers fresh, natural and organic foods. Their mission is to improve the health of the communities they serve by offering the healthiest products. They sell plenty of fresh products, including organic varieties. Nearly all of our Grocery Department items contain natural ingredients, and so do many of the other products in the store. At Sprouts,"local" means "made or produced in your state."

BENEFITS!

 

• Buy Local -- Support yourself: Significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local businesses, service providers and farms -- continuing to strengthen the economic base of the community

• Support community groups: Non-profit organizations receive an average 250% more support from smaller business owners than they do from large businesses.

• Reduce environmental impact: Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation and generally set up shop in town or city centers as opposed to developing on the fringe. This generally means contributing less to sprawl, congestion, habitat loss and pollution.

• Create more good jobs: Small local businesses are the largest employer nationally and in our community, provide the most jobs to residents.

• Buy what you want, not what someone wants you to buy: A marketplace of tens of thousands of small businesses is the best way to ensure innovation and low prices over the long-term. A multitude of small businesses, each selecting products based not on a national sales plan but on their own interests and the needs of their local customers, guarantees a much broader range of product choices.
