Nubian Market (Good Food Markets Bartlett)

Oasis Community Partners, a nonprofit organization based in Washington, D.C., has received funding to expand their Good Food Markets (GFM) grocery store chain to the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston. First piloted in 2015, GFM perfected their model in the D.C. area and are ready to expand: the newest GFM will be located within a larger mixed-use development project, Bartlett Station, and will help revitalize the low-income Dudley Square area of Roxbury.

Oasis Community Partners’ mission is to improve food access and community health in underserved urban food deserts. Its team has extensive experience in food service, non-profit operations, and development. The Food Trust is proud to add its support for the project, which has a strong history of successful launches since the inaugural Good Food Markets in 2015 in a low-income community in Washington D.C. 

The new Bartlett location will implement the "Good Neighbor Rewards" (GNR) customer loyalty program developed at the D.C. pilot store. Originally funded by a grant from the Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC), GNR now provides a 25% discount on all produce and fruit to self-identified food insecure households (including SNAP) and seniors (60+). All members earn redeemable loyalty points and receive a 5% discount on 100 every-day core products. The store is in line to accept SNAP and WIC in addition to these special assistance programs.
