Compton gets a Grocery Outlet

I found it interesting this is going around Tumblr
(warning, many find Tumblr in general to be "not safe for work")
Claim of being first black-owned grocer in Compton selling affordable organics

Hopefully this store will be stocked well and be stocked properly for the neighborhood.

I have noticed the natural/organic areas have been downsized significantly at a couple of the more poorly performing/not so great neighborhood Grocery Outlets in my area in recent months. The items were not selling so it just did not make sense to have many of them at those specific locations.

I have noticed Grocery Outlet has improved its fresh produce mix lately, but still has a long ways to go. Also it was brought to my attention that they are no longer supposed to be selling any expired products, per directive of the corporate office sometime last year. This is a significant change and it does not seem like all locations are yet on board.
