Market Information and Position: A new owner may continue to build upon the existing concept or modify it to expand specialty meat products, local organic fresh farm produce, as well as specialty wine and cheese offerings. The grocery store could add check cashing, lottery, a juice and smoothie bar, and delivery services. A modification to the Conditional Use Permit and upgrade to a full-liquor off-sale license could also significantly increase potential revenues. Competition is considered to be medium as other Hispanic grocery stores exist in the area, however this business has developed and maintained a loyal customer base in the 20 years it has operated. Competition: A full service Hispanic supermarket recently opened which may increase competition, or alternatively, create a Hispanic shopping hub in the area that could benefit the business.
