Please join us for a rare glimpse of the retail food environment from the vantage point of an independent grocer of significant scale. In a period where massive consolidation has yielded bigger and bigger supermarket chains with unprecedented economic advantages over both their suppliers and smaller competitors, how does a medium-sized independent regional grocery chain survive? Hear what it takes from a long-time friend of Equal Exchange, the co-owner of Cleveland-based Heinen’s supermarkets. Jeff Heinen will share stories from his decades of leadership and how Heinen’s has responded to the constantly evolving pressures and expectations consumers have of their local supermarket.
