Zusammenfassung:“Traditional supermarkets are providing a lot more accessible and immediate snacking options,” said Mathes Martines, a growth expert at consultancy Beyond Brands and a veteran of The Kroger Co. and Whole Foods Market. Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage, Lakeland, Colo., whose 142 stores do not have a service deli but do emphasize grab-and-go items, are selling a six-item line of snack packs from Niman Ranch that were introduced in 2017, including a 3-ounce pack of Genoa salami, provolone and taralli crackers that sells for $3.99. Last fall, at Foragers Market, a three-unit specialty retailer based in Brooklyn, N.Y., the retailer introduced prepacked soft-boiled eggs sprinkled with sea salt and Espelette chili powder as an add-on at its salad bar.
