New Seasons Market is a friendly neighborhood grocery store that believes great-tasting, local food has the power to build community and enhance lives. From taking care of our staff, partners, neighborhoods and the environment, to growing a sustainable and profitable business, we’re doing what we love with a commitment to cultivating a strong community centered around good food. We were the first grocer to achieve a B Corp certification, exceeding rigorous standards for social and environmental performance, accountability and transparency. Founded in 2000 by three families and 50 friends in Portland, OR, we’re now a team of nearly 3,000 passionate staff across 21 stores in Oregon and SW Washington—serving a unique mix of locally sourced and organic items, classic grocery favorites, and chef-made grab and go meal solutions. Our mission is to be the ultimate neighborhood store. We focus on building and nourishing the communities we serve, creating lasting relationships with our customers, staff and vendors. We’re proud of our progressive values— from offering industry-leading compensation and benefits, to committing 10 percent of our after-tax profits to the communities we serve. We buy from as many local producers as possible, connecting them with our customers and doing our part to champion the regional food economy. At the same time, we operate in a financially responsible way, and do our best to inspire environmental stewardship. Come join us and see why we’re a different kind of grocery store.
