This is a brand new site, created so that people can look up alternatives to the big 5 in Canada (Loblaws, Sobeys, Costco, Walmart, Metro). Windsor doesn't have any listings yet - that's how new this is. Let's fill it up with our favourite local independent grocers 🙂
Joseph's, Mercato, Remark, Downtown Farmer's Market, Fred's, Namaste Market and a tonne of East Indian and International grocers in town..
This is how change happens.
Www.altgrocery.ca
*Edit: to add an independent grocer, close to you, just take the link to the page, and "add resource". 🙂!

Explore Altgrocery.ca, a crowdsourced platform facilitating the discovery of independent grocers, bakeries, country markets, international stores, and local farmers' markets in Canada. Navigate through provinces or cities with our interactive map to find unique shopping destinations near you.
