Sells natural and organic groceries, prepared food, dietary supplements, health-and-beauty products, and household goods through locally branded stores. Most revenue comes from point-of-sale retail transactions, with centralized operations supporting regional banners.
Operates 19 natural-and-organic grocery and dietary-supplement stores under Ada's Natural Market, Paradise Health & Nutrition, Mother Earth's Storehouse, Green's Natural Foods, Ellwood Thompson's, and GreenAcres Market. The locally branded portfolio spans Florida, the Northeast, Virginia, Kansas, and Oklahoma, while centralizing sourcing, inventory, technology, finance, and corporate functions.
Generates most revenue from retail-grocery transactions, with food service and vendor cooperative advertising providing smaller contributions. Stores sell organic produce, grocery, prepared food, supplements, health-and-beauty products, and household goods; TheVitaminStore.com is a very small online channel, and a reported wellness center offers vitamin treatments. Product screening, local assortment decisions, nutrition education, and customer service support the operating proposition.
Depends on leased stores, natural-and-organic product supply, and supplier distribution arrangements. A pending merger with Host Digital requires stockholder, listing, tax, and other approvals, shifting the issuer to a data-center platform.
