73. Rachel Krupa - Can Bodegas, Minibars, and Newsstands Really Be Healthy?

Global Wellness Conversations

Can bodegas and mini-marts be a force for good? In today's episode, we dive into the world of eco-conscious retail with Rachel Krupa, the innovative founder of The Goods Mart. Rachel is redefining the traditional convenience store experience by offering healthier, sustainable alternatives and championing emerging, diverse brands. We'll talk about her journey, the challenges she's faced, the communities she’s helped build, and how she's breaking barriers in an industry often overlooked when it comes to sustainable and health-forward business practices. Join us as we explore the intersection of convenience and conscious consumerism, and learn how The Goods Mart is on a mission to change the way we think about shopping for good. Rachel was a keynote speaker at the Global Wellness Summit's 2023 Wellness Real Estate and Communities Symposium held at JPMorgan Chase headquarters in NYC.
