Grocery Outlet is closing 36 underperforming stores nationwide due to a $225 million net loss in fiscal 2025.
Grocery Outlet appears to be opening a new store on a prominent corner of Oakland's popular Temescal neighborhood, as first reported by the San Francisco Chronicle (the Chronicle and SFGATE are both owned by Hearst but have separate newsrooms). The Emeryville-based discount grocery chain has applied for a liquor license at 5055 Telegraph Ave., according to records at the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
When it comes to grocery shopping, finding a reliable source of meals and good deals can be more difficult in some cities than others. Los Angeles is known for many things - including a high cost of living and being home to many popular West coast grocery store chains. But looking around Reddit, the prevailing opinion about which is the cheapest points largely to Grocery Outlet.
