Creating Opportunities for Everyone
We’re not your average grocery store…
Welcome to Grocer 4 Good
It began with determination and a drive to create something positive in the city of Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Grocer 4 Good Ability Development Program (G4G) was started in order to address two key gaps: one being the lack of paid employment opportunities for those with disabilities and barriers, and the second being the lack of food access in the downtown area for those on a fixed income.
Using the model of a grocery store, G4G is a program that provides job skill training, paid employment or volunteer work to those who face barriers or who are chronically underemployed. We encourage all community members to shop at Grocer 4 Good – your business supports our ability to employ more staff facing barriers while continuing to provide at-cost food to our neighbours living on fixed incomes.
The grocery store is currently located at 147 Gore Street, and is open and available for anyone to shop at! We accept cash, debit, Visa/MasterCard and have gift cards available in-store or online.



How We Operate
We created Grocer 4 Good (G4G) to respond to a need in our community – neurodivergent young adults and other barriers have few opportunities to access employment, and mainstream pipelines to employment can be difficult to access without support.
