FMI staff love a good store visit. We’ve even been known to band together and visit new stores near our offices during our lunch breaks.

This summer, some of our staff will be visiting food retail establishments across the country and we’ll be sharing photos from their visits on Fridays. Here are some snapshots from on recent visit to Kalamazoo People’s Food Co-op, a consumer-owned cooperative grocery store in Michigan, captured by Cynthia Brazzel, director of member relations and advocacy for the western region at FMI.
