    What’s the situation with grocery stores in NYC that the mayor has to promise city owned grocery stores?

      What he’s been saying is that NYC has an affordability problem. People can’t afford basic necessities (rent, food, transportation, childcare). Can’t speak for availability and pricing myself, I don’t live in the US.

      Commercial groceries are expensive, a city owned distributer can negotiate prices with food suppliers and pass those savings along to citizens by selling food at or extremely near cost.

      Also food deserts.
