Daily Table Explained

Daily Table is an American chain of low price grocery stores.[1]

History

Daily Table was founded in 2012 by Doug Rauch, the former president of Trader Joe's. The not-for-profit company aims to sell healthy food at a price point suitable for working low-income families. Daily Table sells inexpensive produce and pre-packaged meals. Its prices are significantly lower than the lowest options at a traditional grocery store. Daily Table considers itself the first not-for-profit supermarket of its kind.

Daily Table opened its first store in Dorchester, Massachusetts, on June 4, 2015. It has since opened up stores in Roxbury, Massachusetts and Cambridge, Massachusetts.[2]

The Dorchester store is set up like a boutique grocery with wood crates and a window to a food preparation area. The company has plans to expand to Detroit, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco.
