customers are trying to pursuade the store to have a bulk section.

The Chinese Lady working in the Customer SErvice yesterday says they

don't have a bulk area due to lack of space. I want to tell her to

take out some meat and the vitamin section. The vitamin area is not

using space very efficiently.

 

UPDATE NEWS

I just spoke with the manager of Aanii this morning, who's super

smart, based on her experience on another Whole Foods Store, there

were a lot of problems in the bulk section. People were sticking

their hands in the bulk foods and Whole Foods have to dump the who

thing away. Space WAS NOT the issue. This Whole Foods is a trial

store with NO bulk food. A lot of the bulk foods now come

prepackaged. If there's anything specific you always want, they might

order it for today. Today 3 people had asked for the bulk section.

 

The manager knows we will go to Rainbow or another store for our bulk

products.

I don't think there will be a change for awhile. If you want to make

your comments. THis BEST way is to put it in writing. Somewhere in

Whole food's web site is a COMMENTS section. I was not able to find

that section.

 

I've decided not to do anything since Whole Foods will do this

experience for a whole. Bulk foods are affordable food for the

less " rich " folks.
