In this inaugural 5-page report, Quest Non-Profit Grocery Markets looks at why its market clients, including households with families and children, are hit hardest when it comes to the cost of food.
In British Columbia the price of food and rising cost of groceries remains a major issue impacting all corners of the province. Using our own grocery and food data, Quest Non-Profit Grocery Markets is working to better understand how Metro Vancouver households living paycheck to paycheck are impacted by the cost of groceries. Drawing from our annual Community Referring Partner and Client Engagement Survey results, as well as annual operations across five non-profit grocery markets serving 10,000+ unique individuals, we have assembled the evidence, identified the issues and considered solutions that elected, policy and nonprofit and community leaders alike can use and share in building strategies that meat the needs of families across British Columbia.
We hope this report is a source of insight and support.
