Sav A Lot, Aldi stores, both carry mostly private label brands from smaller companies, not the mega corps.
I am quite sure there are comparable smaller groceries all over the country if one were to look for them. Never ever had an issue with bad food from any smaller stores I shopped at.
I did nOt think there were any in my area in Nc either, but then I actually listened to some folks talking about getting groceries other than walmart, kroger, and other big name stores.
The smaller stores meant going off the main drag roads, cause they also look for more affordable locations to build.
We find small stores pretty much anytime we go to horse shows, dog trials, etc. No matter where
Nice that your area has 'em. Mine does not. There's two grocery stores: walmart, and some local place which is a gamble on if your milk will be good and the flour won't have bugs in it
Sure, most people know that, but the "not major brand" is also cheaper. Plus many of these local stores are sourcing more local products from smaller producers too.
It can be done without Nestle, or the other bigger brands. But why would they change their ways when people keep pouring their money out for their products?
Shop things on the bottom shelves - many are from small manufacturers. But people refuse to do that.
Kinda like how brand name Eggos and generic Eggos are produced in the same factory? Using Eggos as an example but it could be swapped with anything lol
It's a win win for the community. Slightly cheaper groceries because small company, major brands taboo, and local residents have jobs, instead of machines and self checkout.
Our little local grocery store doesn't even offer major brands, except a veery very few items. Still plenty of food to purchase there, and way less cost. They even have real live employed cashiers at every checkout! Imagine that!
