A new Publix just opened a few miles from my house, right on the way to work and it is HUGE!!!! All businesses base production partly on historical sales, but a brand new store doesn’t have such records, only educated guesses. Publix is more worried about running low on prepared products like butchered meats and deli products, so they will certainly have more waste in the first few months than usual, so I’m hoping that their management will be receptive to my requests to be allowed to pick up the “waste” once a week.
Also trying to sign us up for Wake Up America, which will be like a secondary source of foods for your clients to supplement what we are able to get from Harry Chapin Food Bank. Let’s hope and pray that these efforts bear fruit!
