GREEN GROCER PROJECT
WHAT IS THE GREEN GROCER PROJECT?
The overarching goal of the Green Grocer Project is to have more fresh and healthy food available at retail food locations in Detroit. In addition to the continued support of larger traditional full-service grocery stores, this phase of GGP will emphasize attraction efforts to create walkable neighborhood grocery shopping options through new smaller-scale fully operational neighborhood grocery stores, existing convenience stores willing to include grocery essentials, fresh meat and produce, and innovative hybrid food locations, all of which have fresh healthy food options
