New ‘Your Local Market’ Set To Open In Bellevue, WA Will Focus On Organic, Local

BELLEVUE, Wash. — Your Local Market(TM), the nation's first market to combine 80 percent local, natural and certified organic brands with 20 percent of the leading mainstream grocery brands, will open this holiday season.

Located at the corner of 4th and Bellevue Way NE, this one-of-a-kind market will open in the heart of downtown next to The Bellevue Collection. Washington-based Concept Development Group, headed by WA resident, Jason Brown, has fully developed this market with a dedicated team of serial retail entrepreneurs and grocery store professionals to deliver a customer-centered marketplace created to meet the needs of the expanding natural food customers who want the best in certified organics but still love products like Coke, Lays Potato Chips, or Advil.

"We've spent the past 15 years developing customer driven natural product bricks and mortar retail stores as well as consumer websites — and recognized a great opportunity to bring everything we've learned about what customers want in a grocery store to our hometown," says Brown, founder, of Your Local Market(TM).

Brown adds, "Your Local Market(TM)solves the problem of having to search within a 50,000 to 80,000 sq. ft. natural food stores and then still need to drive to additional stores to get the mainstream household items you want. Simply put, we provide, in less than 24,900 sq. ft., the top selling local, organic and natural products as if you were shopping within Whole Foods or PCC — but you can still purchase Pepsi, Clorox, Charmin, Tim's Chips or Bayer Aspirin all under the same roof. While national bestselling brands will be abundant, our goal is to bring you our area's bounty from local manufacturers, artisans, farmers, fishermen and ranchers, and to tell you their story which helps support our local economy through your buying choices."

Your Local Market(TM)will offer a comprehensive full-service deli, a scratch bakery, all natural meats, quality wines at fair value, artisan cheeses and fresh baked breads. At the center of our foodservice section there will be ready-to-eat hot and cold entrees for all meal occasions. Also, we have built a warm, friendly cafe located in the center of the market, as a place to catch up on emails with free WIFI while you have a great meal, or coffee and a homemade donut for that early morning treat. Another unique feature about YLM is that we will sell veterinary approved house made dog food for the discerning pet, however, they must eat outside…

"We are excited to have Your Local Market(TM)adjacent to The Bellevue Collection," states Howard McQuaid, VP of Leasing for The Bellevue Collection. "Your Local Market(TM) is a wonderful addition to the strong offering of retail and restaurants and promises to bring an impressive array of brands and fresh products to the mix. This convenience and high quality offering is just what the Eastside customer is asking for."

Your Local Market's(TM) e-commerce website makes online ordering possible for Grocery or Catering Delivery within three miles as well as convenient Curbside Pickup right out front. "Place your order, and then give us a call when you're out front and we will deliver your groceries into the trunk of your car, saving both time and money," says Brown.

We are proud, local owners, building a community focused Food Company in Bellevue and will be hiring 100+ new team members to join us over the next 60 days, so please pass along the word and feel free to apply at HR@YourLocalMarket.com. Visit us at www.YourLocalMarket.com to learn more.
