As of 9/23, this Earth Fare will have been open a year.
I shop there frequently and have been in there all times of the day, night, weekdays, weekends. It is simply never busy, with employees frequently standing around with nothing to do.
How long will Earth Fare continue to lose money before they pull the plug?
So why is this store failing?
I believe it's a bad location. They put it in a high-traffic, commuter-intensive, industrial section of Summerville. I also think the demographics and income profile of the area don't fit an organic grocer.

Would have been much better suited for a location in MtP. Would love to see an EF in the old Southern Season location or somewhere near Coleman.
