MY NEIGHBORHOOD MOBILE GROCERY

My Neighborhood Mobile Grocery (MNMG) is a nutritionally-focused mobile grocery retail model that provides individuals with low access to quality, affordable foods with a new and innovative shopping option within their communities. Offering a wide, competitively priced product mix that balances client choice with nutritional products, educational programming, and free food give-a-ways to incentivize increased consumption of fruits and vegetables, MNMG extends the purchasing power of shoppers.

Greeters (3 needed) - Greet shoppers as they arrive. Distribute shopping lists and explain the ordering process. Manage the queueing line of shoppers as they review products on the display table and wait to place their order. Indoor setting.

Order Takers/Runners (3 needed) - Facilitate the shopping process for customers across the apartment complex - running orders from the two other building lobbies to the main building where our point of sale is located. Volunteers should be extremely comfortable reading smaller print, making simple calculations, and going in and out of doors.

Order Fillers (4 needed) - Work on pulling the customers’ orders from the Gleaners Mobile Grocery truck. Orders will be double checked as they are bagged or boxed for the customers. Outdoor setting in truck.
