"Natural Grocers has come a long way since my family opened its first one-room store over fifty years ago," said Kemper Isely, Natural Grocers Co-President. "We can't wait to showcase our expansive new facility to the shoppers that have made us successful over the years. We'll have space to host our free nutritional education seminars, a kitchen for cooking demos and a community room for neighbors to meet and relax in."

Natural Grocers, based in Colorado, offers free health coaching to its customers—including individualized nutrition sessions, meal planning, and other guidance about nutrition and health. Every Natural Grocers supports a full time credentialed Nutritional Health Coach(SM) and all staff are trained to help shoppers find products and resources to support optimal health.

About Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage
Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage (NGVC), founded in Colorado by Margaret & Philip Isely in 1955, was built on the premise that consumers should have access to affordable, high-quality foods and dietary supplements, along with nutrition knowledge to help them support their own health.  The family-run store has since grown into a successful national chain with locations across Colorado, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, Oklahoma, Missouri, New Mexico, Montana, Kansas, Idaho, Nebraska, Arizona and Oregon—employing over 1900 employees.  The company went public in July 2012; however, Isely family members continue to manage the company, building on the foundation of their parents' business.  Natural Grocers' popularity and success can be traced back to its founding principles: providing customers with high quality products at every day affordable prices.
