Profile
Fresh-produce-centered specialty grocer selling a curated mix of organic, plant-based, gluten-free, and other lifestyle-oriented products. Its open layout and farmers-market-style presentation shape a multistate U.S. retail format.
Fresh produce anchors an open-layout specialty grocery format. A curated assortment adds organic, plant-based, gluten-free, and other lifestyle-oriented products for shoppers seeking healthier food choices.
Farm-stand heritage informs a layout that keeps produce at the center of each store. Stores pair a farmers-market-style presentation with a value, produce, and service focus. The format grew from the first Chandler, Arizona store into a multistate U.S. retailer through the earlier combination of Sprouts, Henry’s, Sun Harvest, and Sunflower Farmers Market.
Merchandising depends on the fresh-produce-centered layout and curated healthy-food proposition that shape the store experience.

Ownership
A 13F quarter can total more than the shares outstanding — sub-advisers file the same block twice, and a filer's own share count can be a quarter stale. No split is drawn from it.
