Sprouts Farmers Market is a US grocery chain focused on fresh, natural, and organic foods, with 374 stores across 23 states—think Whole Foods but smaller and more neighborhood-oriented.
Money comes from selling groceries, with annual revenue of USD 8.81B and a gross margin around 37%. Net margin is thin at roughly 6%, typical for retail, and sales are recurring but tied to foot traffic.
