For its Newnan store, Sprouts said it sources produce from local and regional suppliers, including Southern Valley Fruit and Vegetable and Shuman Farms.
In its statement, the company said: “Sprouts Farmers Market is invested in serving the communities where it operates and works with local and regional farmers such as Southern Valley Fruit and Vegetable and Shuman Farms to source local produce.
“Through Sprouts’ Food Rescue programme this store will donate groceries that are no longer fit for sale but remain perfectly edible and nutrient rich to the Atlanta Community Food Bank.”
Phoenix, Arizona-headquartered Sprouts Farmers Market employs approximately 36,000 people and operates more than 500 stores across 25 US states.
The latest openings follow store launches in Arlington, Virginia, and College Station, Texas, last month, as well as openings in San Diego, California, and Limerick, Pennsylvania, earlier this month.
It also opened its 500th store in The Woodlands, Texas, last month.
