AUSTIN, Texas – Last week, 365 by Whole Foods Market announced it will open its first location on May 25 in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles. Designed to complement the Whole Foods Market brand by bringing fresh, healthy food to a broader audience, the company says that 365 will feature a curated mix of products that adhere to the company’s quality standards in an environment that’s fun and convenient for shoppers.

Silver Lake’s 365 by Whole Foods Market will host several “Friends of 365” through partnerships with brands such as by CHLOE., Allegro Coffee Company and teaBOT. Friends of 365 is an opportunity for businesses and entrepreneurs to establish their own independent retail spaces inside of 365. Allegro will expand its coffee offer with a craft brew bar, serving hot coffee, cold beer and a selection of food items. Toronto-based startup teaBOT will install a self-serve kiosk, allowing customers to personalize tea by mixing up to three of 18 different teas and herbal ingredients. New York-based vegan restaurant by CHLOE. will offer plant-based foods, including burgers, salads, market specials, pastas and sweets available for in-store dining or grab-and-go.

“With each store, we’re looking to curate a unique experience,” said Jeff Turnas, president of 365 by Whole Foods Market. “We’ve really dedicated ourselves to partnering with like-minded companies that are doing new and interesting things in their respective field to bring a truly unique shopping experience that complements our thoughtfully curated selection of foods.”

To provide added convenience, 365 will offer online ordering and delivery services through Instacart.

Two additional 365 by Whole Foods Market locations will open this year in Bellevue, Washington, and Portland, Oregon. Up to 10 stores are expected to open in 2017.
