Whole Foods Market Opens Small Format Store
Whole Foods Market’s first smaller-format store has debuted in New York City as Whole Foods Market Daily Shop recently celebrated its grand opening. Located at 1175 Third Avenue, the 9,101-square-foot store is designed to provide a convenient shopping experience in an urban setting.
“Opening this first Whole Foods Market Daily Shop location – which was specially tailored for the needs of an urban market like New York City – marks a special milestone for our company,” said Christina Minardi, executive vice president of Growth & Development with Whole Foods Market & Amazon.
Among the store’s features are:
- Launch of new ready-to-heat sous vide entrees & sides from the Whole Foods Market Kitchens brand.
- Single-serve hot bowls and meals including health-forward Teriyaki Salmon, Falafel Tahini, and Chipotle Chicken grain and protein bowls.
- Whole Foods Market favorites, including an ample selection of fresh, seasonal produce, meat and seafood, prepared foods like sandwiches and pre-packed meals, breads, alcohol, and supplements, as well as a handpicked range of local specialties and our own 365 by Whole Foods Market brand.
“As a lifelong New Yorker, I am thrilled to welcome customers into our first Whole Foods Market Daily Shop,” said Timeisha Brisco, store leader for Whole Foods Market Daily Shop. “Whether they are picking up coffee or lunch on-the-go, or grabbing final ingredients needed for dinner, we look forward to providing our customers with a quick, convenient shopping experience that meets all of our quality standards.”
Prime members who shop at Whole Foods Market have access to several benefits year-round, including deep discounts on select popular products each week and an additional 10% off hundreds of in-store sale items. Customers can also pay in-store with their palm using Amazon One or the Whole Foods Market or Amazon app.
Additional Whole Foods Market Daily Shop locations will follow at 409 E 14th Street, in the East Village’s StuyTown development, and in Hell’s Kitchen at 301 West 50th Street.
