Do they have Whole Foods/Trader Joe's/Wegman's there? If not...  |
Whole Foods has been here since the '90s

WELLSPRING GROCERY
Wellspring Grocery opened its doors in 1981, after three years of planning and preparation. Owners Lex and Anne Alexander led a team of home-grown, energetic workers who set out to change the way the Triangle community of North Carolina (Durham, Raleigh and Chapel Hill) shopped for food. The idea was to offer high quality and great nutrition, and to encourage consumers to be more connected with the food they ate.
The first store, located in Durham, was completely "vegetarian." In 1986, it moved to a larger space two blocks up the street, and in response to consumer demand, added fish, poultry and meat. In 1990, a second store opened in Chapel Hill, approximately 10 miles away. Wellspring Grocery joined Whole Foods Market in November of 1991

Trader Joes has locations here as well.
NC has Harris Cheater and soon to be getting Publix
Transplants keep wanting Wegmans but their people said NO.
In my area of NC, we also have A Southern Season, which gets a LOT of the gourmet stuff your typical grocery store doesn't have.We also have a nationally recognized Co-Op, and Fresh Market too.
I live there too
But wait there are still Pathmarks around? All the ones by me went out of business years ago I think
