alipaigeh on 03 Oct 13I think this article is very interesting because I had the same thoughts when learning that Whole Foods was expanding into these new areas. Since Whole Foods is considered a high-end grocery store, it really made me question what its marketing strategy actually is and if they are making the right decision by entering into these markets. I truly think this will be a challenge for Whole Foods because they are dealing with a market that is not truly its target market, but if they succeed I think this will strengthen Whole Foods' brand more than any other grocer.
