High Quality Standards

Many of us are concerned with knowing what goes into the products we buy. Whole Foods Market’s rigorous quality standards make that easier. If a product doesn’t meet their standards, they don’t sell it. Whole Foods Market always:

  • Carefully evaluates each and every product sold.
  • Features foods that are free of artificial preservatives, colors, flavors, sweeteners and hydrogenated fats. Nothing in the entire store has any of these ingredients in them!
  • Is passionate about great tasting food and the pleasure of sharing it with others.
  • Is committed to foods that are fresh, wholesome and safe to eat.
  • Seeks out and promotes organically grown foods.
  • Provides food and nutritional products that support health and well-being.

In addition to high quality standards throughout the store, Whole Foods has additional department-specific standards. For example, in the Whole Foods seafood department you’ll never find:

  • Antibiotics, growth hormones or poultry and mammalian products in feed
  • Genetically modified or cloned seafood
  • Added preservatives

Additionally, all farmed fish have a minimal environmental impact, are traceable from farm to store and have undergone rigorous audits from third-party testers.
