The 548-page plain language version of the adopted report is currently pending in the Ohio Legislature for consideration and formal introduction. Contained within the extensive report is language that could prove problematic to OGA members, dealing with revisions to the felony threshold level under the theft law provisions. In short, the language would raise the threshold from its current $1,000 to $2,500. OGA met with legislative members on the committee over the course of the process to relay our concerns. Given the vast amount of subject matter contained with the legislation, we were advised and thought best to revisit the matter when actual legislation or language is introduced. The SNAP discussion continues With the budget in the rearview mirror, the Legislature will turn its focus to other pressing matters this to be a prominent issue of fall, with criminal justice reform high on the list. We fully expect to see a bill or several bills introduced discussion. As Congress begins sometime later this year as a by-product of the committee’s recommendations. debate on the next Farm Bill, the Ohio Legislature has also Legislature Continues Hearings on SNAP Reform had several pieces of legislation aimed on revising and reforming Most pressing is legislation that would establish a photo ID on an EBT card under SNAP and legislation SNAP on the state level. aimed on revising eligibility requirements for the program itself. Both are aimed at the state’s attempt to reduce fraud within the system, which OGA also shares as a common goal. We’ve been able to work the sponsors, committee chairs, and interested parties to make sure the legislation does impede a recipient’s access to SNAP benefits and also does not place burden on retailers. The photo ID legislation, House Bill 50, drew a considerable amount of testimony and input from the impacted industries including law enforcement, community groups, and OGA. Although some discussion considered to add additional requirements on retailers, we were able to work with the committee to make sure those were not included. House Bill 50 did pass out of committee in early June, and we await further action. The tastiest way to celebrate football season. @VelvetIceCream VelvetIceCream.com WASHINGTON REVIEW Time for Washington to Serve up Solutions for Independent Grocers President Trump’s first year in office is quickly approaching, however much of Washington continues to be consumed with high-profile turnovers within the Administration, leaks, and an ongoing Russia investigation.

  • Wellness at Retail: the Continuing Story
    Wellness at Retail: The Continuing Story Expanding the delivery of health and wellness services thru retail channels has been a long-term trend in the United States. In our last article, Wellness at Retail: An Introduction, we traced highlights of this trend, including: the evolution of the health food industry into mainline grocery, i.e. Whole Foods; the integration of traditional healthcare services into large format retail, i.e. the appearance of clinics in chains like Kroger and Target; and the collaboration of retailers and insurance companies in the promotion of healthy eating, i.e. Go365 by Walmart and Humana. Since then, this trend has continued and, like everything around us, been deeply impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Pharmacy, and grocery in particular, have emerged as cornerstone brick-and- mortar retail formats, compelled to protect employees while serving increased customer demand. These essential retail workers have emerged as frontline heroes, risking their lives by reporting to work, and the retailers have assumed leadership roles within their communities, in protecting the public by providing PPE to staff and requiring all shoppers to wear masks. Many retailers have initiated new health and wellness offerings or expanded existing programs during the current crisis. Major retailers like Walmart and CVS(1), as well as independents like SpartanNash(2), have assisted in providing testing. Online nutrition services are expanding rapidly as grocers, like ShopRite(3) and Stop & Shop(4), have added digital dietitians, nutrition coaching, recipe demonstrations and other services. And Weis Markets has taken it a step farther with the addition of a video-chat platform providing counseling on the management of chronic conditions, like diabetes and high blood pressure, along with other nutrition services.

    Center for Food and Agricultural Business CAB CS 15.1 September 1, 2015 Online Food Shopping: Peapod Finds a Path “Mike, the evidence is clear: Nearly every single technical innovation—from PCs to digital music and mobile phones—has struggled at first with low sales for a long period of time before reaching an inflection point, then rising exponentially. E-commerce is following that principle. We are on the cusp of rapid acceleration.” Andrew Parkinson, founder and president of Peapod, the online grocery company, did not have to convince Mike Brennan, Peapod’s Chief Operating Officer, that Peapod was poised for growth. Grocery was the biggest category in retailing but had proved the most resistant to the advance of online shopping.
