Our latest report analyzes the performance of 5 publicly traded discount retailers: TJX, ROSS, Grocery Outlet, Ollie's, and Big Lots. In Q3 of 2023 the industry experienced remarkable growth and significant shifts, and we've gathered all the insights you need to stay ahead of the game - from store openings and leadership changes to comparable store sales and how the next generation of consumers are shopping. "Our business model offers shoppers both value and convenience, and we believe consumers’ heightened focus on these important factors bodes well for us for the foreseeable future,” shared Barbara Rentler, CEO at ROSS.

Check out how Kimberly Jones, Director of Sales and Purchasing at Natural Choice Foods, is making an impact on #foodinsecurity. ⬇�� Natural Choice Foods purchases bulk food items that were slightly over-produced or under-sold at discounted prices, perform quality inspections, repackage them into smaller portions, and distribute them to food deserts and outlets. This process enables customers to have affordable and easy access to more meals. In terms of other organizations that address food access, Kimberly shouted us out: "Spoiler Alert helps food and #CPG manufacturers reduce #waste via their online discounted sales platform. Much of the product sold through their platform goes to #discount retailers that operate in underserved communities. I have been impressed with their vision, drive, and ability to enact change with food suppliers." Looking to make an impact yourself? Kimberly recommends "visiting your local food outlet or discount grocer. These products are the same products you see in other stores, just with a little shorter shelf-life. These #grocery stores are slowly going out of business and they often service customers in #fooddeserts." Her innovative ideas have saved millions of pounds of food from going into landfills, underscoring her commitment to #sustainable and responsible business practices. As Kimberely shares - never settle for how things have always been! Read the entire feature: https://lnkd.in/eW3Q_JYq
