How Discount Grocery Stores Keep Prices Low

Unlike conventional grocery chains, discount stores like Grocery Outlet operate on a unique business model. They buy excess stock from suppliers, meaning inventory changes frequently. This approach ensures lower prices while still providing a variety of fresh produce, dairy, and pantry staples. Additionally, Grocery Outlet stores are independently owned, allowing operators to tailor selections to local preferences.

They also have a simple strategy to save money; they ask customers to bring their own bags which savings also get passed on.
