From rights-based organic food to community produce narrative, these triple-bottom-line groceries pay attention to people, planet and profit as an everyday business model and as a goal to keep in mind through the day-to-day practice.
While it may seem to make sense that where you go to find things to put in your mouth would be triple-bottom-line groceries, industrial farming has meant that profit has been the main channel through which success is measured with people, manufacturing production as well as sustainability is left by the wayside. A few of the examples in this list have been innovative in terms of retail. For instance, when it comes to retail location, a few are mobile and travel around in an effort to address food deserts.
