When it comes to food and beverages, Los Angeles has anything and everything the discerning consumer could wish for! As a Hollywood hotspot, hub for arts and culture and a focal point of the healthy living scene – it’s one of the most exciting places to eat and drink in America.
Competition for CPGs in Los Angeles is fierce
How could it not be? There’s over 4,700 supermarkets and grocery stores across California, with a whopping 2,056 of these stores located in Los Angeles County.
What’s more, there’s a staggering 29,560 restaurants in Los Angeles city alone. Compare this with an estimated 26,000 restaurants in New York, 18,000 in London and just 13,000 in Rome – and you get an idea of the sheer size of LA’s food scene!
With unparalleled levels of choice, LA shoppers demand the best ingredients and sustainable practices from CPG companies. All this means massive business opportunities for high-quality mission-driven brands – and this is where the right wholesale food distributor can really make a difference.
