“Competition is the strongest factor in the selloff of organic food retailers. All of the organic food retailers have store targets well above their current store count. Organic food retailers alone have targeted total store counts of 2,800 from a current store count of 399, representing a sevenfold increase. In addition to competition from pure organic food retailers, traditional food retailers are seeing the growth in the organic growth segment as a way to boost growth in same store sale growth. The increased competitive pressures are the key drivers of the weakness in the first and second quarter of 2014.”
