Benefits:

• Operational Autonomy: Run your store the way you think is best for your community, employees, and business.
• Uncapped Earning Potential: There is no limit to what you can earn; the more your store sells, the higher your commission payment will be.
• Control Your Schedule: While a full-time commitment is required, you have the flexibility to choose your working hours and manage your own schedule.
• Corporate Support: Receive training, mentorship, and support from marketing, finance, and business professionals to assist with any questions or issues that arise.

• Willingness to relocate and commit to the full training and onboarding process.
• A drive for success and the ability to work independently while leveraging the support of the Grocery Outlet network.

This is not the right opportunity for you if you…

• Are looking for a passive investment or absentee ownership.
• Are interested in selling property or real estate to Grocery Outlet.
• Are expecting Grocery Outlet to build a store in a specific location at your request.
