LAKEWOOD, Colo. — Natural Grocers, an innovative natural and organic grocery retailer, shows that although they're not "native," they are "natural" Texans by kicking off the "Natural Grocers has Gone Texan" campaign on Sept. 28 at the Texas State Fair. The promotion supports Natural Grocers' founding principle of Commitment to Community. Natural Grocers strives to support Texas communities by featuring a wide variety of local products in all its Texas stores, making these products even more affordable by offering a 5% off discount on Texas products to all {N}power members from Sept. 17, 2018, through Mar. 31, 2019.
"Everything is bigger in Texas, so it just made sense for us to make an even bigger commitment to the Texas community with the launch of this campaign," said Kemper Isely, Co-President at Natural Grocers. "Commitment to the communities we serve is one of our 5 Founding Principles and through the launch of our Natural Grocers Has Gone Texan campaign, we are able to help promote Texas-based products by giving them more visibility in our marketing and merchandising, and at no additional cost to them, while reducing the cost of those products to our local Texas customers through our loyalty program. It's a big win-win for all."
Natural Grocers is partnering with GO TEXAN and supporting the Texas Organic Farmers & Gardeners Association to promote local Texas products across all categories. Natural Grocers carries over 30 brands of GO TEXAN certified products. Look for the GO TEXAN logo on products.
