“I am incredibly proud of our team at Grocery Outlet for raising more than $5 million in efforts to combat food insecurity,” said Jason Potter, CEO of Grocery Outlet. “I’m inspired by the dedication and generosity of our local partners. Together, with the help of our guests, we helped provide meals for families in need.”
