Selling to a health food store

Your success as a business will depend on how you stand out from your competitors.

This is true whether you’re targeting:

• supermarket chain stores,
• natural grocers,
• organic foods market stalls,
• online health food stores, or
• local grocery store contacts.

Retailers’ perceptions of suppliers have shifted considerably over the past few years. Stores are moving away from trusted suppliers and focusing more on small businesses.

Entrepreneurs bring innovation and variety to stores, enabling them to differentiate themselves in a competitive market. Business selling to health food shops must identify what they can offer that will help them keep their place in the market.

A modern health food shop offers much more than vitamin supplements and organic ingredients. Some stores are taking advantage of the popularity of natural foods and medicines. Others have carved out a niche by tackling environmental issues.

Today, health food retailers can provide everything from a healthy snack to meal planning, organic food, aromatherapy oils, and B vitamins.

Consider these angles when marketing to health food stores:

• where and how your products are made – consumers care about where their food comes from and how ethical it is,
• how does your product or service differ from others – perhaps you use a unique manufacturing process, or your ingredients are local
• authenticity – healthy food is all about getting back to basics, so being authentic is essential.
