Frankly, I've always thought the Wild Oats format was an inferior one to Whole Foods, and am glad we have WF as the survivor (as if there was ever any question about that, given the financial superiority of WF vs WO). I do hope the local organic stores can do better, though, with one less competitor on the landscape.

It seems they are dragging their feet building it though; the progress is painfully slow. It will undoubtedly put the little Crestwood Supermarket out of business. It seems to get seedier everyday. I dream of someone turning it into another Fresh Market.

Ron- I think it had much more to do with crushing Wild Oats (a stone's throw away) than anything else. I would bet that if Oats didn't come to this market that WF would have concidered the Highlands or would not have come at all. They are notorious for picking their targets and judging by the subsequent buy out.....they hit it!Ron Johnson wrote:Is St. Matthews really more affluent than the Highlands?
