Happier Grocery is launching a new health-forward food market as a lifestyle oasis. We are seeking to create a buying experience where the shopper needs not scrutinize every food label. Where the curation of the product will have undergone an extensive selection process ensuring our highest quality - organic, often local, free of preservatives, pesticides, agents, GMOs, hormones, etc...

Happier Grocery intends to be an oasis of discovery, creativity, and life-affirming and supporting nutrition and enjoyment. A place of community, a place of positivity, a step towards a Happier world.

We are on the search for a unique individual who will manage our Beverage Bar program which will offer coffee, teas, and tonic/elixir/TCM drinks. Part of the bar's mission is to educate our customers and make a shift in their mindset for their wellness and health if they are open to it.
