Approximately 40 million Americans, including 5 million Texans, live in food deserts - communities with low access to affordable, fresh, and healthy foods, and often high access to unhealthy alternatives. In these communities, a trip to the grocery store is oftentimes a tradeoff between convenience, cost, and choice.
Little Red Box is all about Good Food. For All. We are reimagining the old model of grocery retail – think of us as a neighborhood bodega meets curbside pick-up, with a focus on community engagement and empowerment – in order to eradicate food deserts.
Why? Because universal access to good food is integral to the vitality of all communities.
We’ve started with one brick-and-mortar store in Galveston’s North of Broadway neighborhood, and will steadily expand until the conversation is no longer ‘Why is this?’, but rather ‘What can this become?’ Join us.
