A long time ago Whole Foods Market was a mom-and-pop grocery
store.
My how things have changed.
Bought by Amazon, the publicly traded Whole Foods Market has
roots in Austin but has now stretched nationwide to provide health savvy shoppers unique
products as well as a one-of-a-kind shopping experience.
Speaking on the state-of-the-art Whole Foods Market (www.wholefoodsmarket.com) location
at 6th and Lamar in downtown Austin, all visitors to our city witness a
cutting-edge grocery store with a friendly smile.
After parking in an underground garage, the escalators lead
you into a giant hall bathed in light, scents, and bustling noises all pointing
towards one thing, a fantastic experience.
Whether you pass by the seemingly unlimited salad bar and
walk into the bakery area filled with lush desserts, the sensory experience is
like no other.
Add to that perhaps the world's largest selection of organic
foods and you have in a nutshell the reason why Whole Foods Market has taken
the nation by storm and has made it so attractive for shoppers and Amazon
alike.
It was once thought that Amazon would make drastic changes
to how whole foods operated, but those critics were proven to be wrong.
In fact, the shopping experience at Whole Foods Market has
been elevated by the integration with Amazon as Amazon shoppers receive
discounts and incentives for coming in to Whole Foods. The product selection
has remained about the same, however we had hoped for Amazon's purchase to
cause prices to become more competitive.
