Why This Work Matters
Millions of Americans lack reliable access to affordable, nutritious, culturally relevant food. Traditional retail models have not adapted to realities of many rural and urban communities.
The 2026 builds a national platform to spotlight what is working, mobilize capital and align policy and operations to strengthen community-based grocery sustainability
Elevates replicable grocery models
Advances capital pathways for community retail
Strengthens cross-sector collaboration
Supports national visibility and policy momentum
Sponsor Impact
Grounded in Operating Reality
A core element of the Summit is ensuring that successful grocers, non-profit operators, and cooperatives can participate fully.
Sponsorship support enables scholarship and participation assistance, ensuring learning is grounded in real operating experiences, not only in the perspectives of well-resourced actors.
