Bryant and Anne are the owners of the Good Green Grocer, a small but successful chain of organic food stores. The organic food sold by Good Green Grocer is of good quality. Also, it is tasty and has long-term health benefits. Bryant and Anne's business has expanded as more and more consumers are interested in eating organic foods. What started as one shop in Vermont has expanded to 15 stores in Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine. Much to their delight, Bryant and Ann have found that many people are willing to pay a bit more for food that is organically grown.
Sunday ads for the Good Green Grocer run in area newspapers, with special promotional prices offered for a list of the "Top Ten Take Homes" each week.
