The mantra for most CEO’s is ‘do no harm’. In most cases that means doing very little,
calling minuscule incrementalism, action. Well, according to Steven Johnson,
Grocerant Guru®
at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions® they can’t say that about Modern Market Eatery co-founder and co-CEO,
Anthony Pigliacampo.
The fact is, Modern Market Eatery (MME) has
always been an innovative brand accustomed to adapting quickly. Understanding
that forced to change means doing something not doing nothing. Thus, the
decision to offer grocery items to guests amid one of the world’s largest
health and economic crises was an easy one.
Modern Market is making its high-quality
supply chain accessible to guests given many consumers don’t want to go into overcrowded
out of stock legacy grocery stores. MME has easy access to produce and
proteins, and competitive prices that rival most grocery stores for the
quantity and quality of items, Modern Market is trying to fill a need in the
community.
Last week the eatery rolled out grocery boxes
and a la carte grocery and prepared food items for online ordering to all of
its currently open markets, including Texas, Arizona and Colorado. Initially
tested in the company’s Colorado restaurants, groceries have proven to be
extremely popular.
“Our boxes not only give guests what they
need, same day delivery, they allow guests to take advantage of the high-quality
food in our supply chain that may be hard to find at grocery stores right now,”
says co-founder and co-CEO, Anthony Pigliacampo. “We
want to give guests access to fresh produce and high-quality meats and prepared
foods at reasonable prices that, at the moment, our local grocers may be out
of.” The current grocery offerings include the following:

bunches asparagus, 1lb cauliflower, 2lb carrots, 2 cucumbers, 3 sweet potatoes,
1lb fingerling potatoes, 1lb mushrooms, 3 avocado, 3 apples, 1lb strawberries,
