This neighborhood grocery was owned by husband and wife, Steve and Debi Mullen, who maintained inventories of low-cost food in low-income neighborhoods. The food was purchased as overstocked, and was of the same quality as any other. The Mullens also owned Madrona Grocery Outlet in Seattle. The food distributor, Grocery Outlets, Incorporated, of Berkeley, CA, sells the overstocked food on consignment to local distributors, like the Mullens. In 2007, there were 144 of these stores, and 30 in Washington State.

This grocery store had 15,000 square feet. The Mullens took possession of the property on 12/01/2006, refurbished it, and re-opened it on 04/14/2007. The owners hoped that this grocery store, like the Madrona Grocery Outlet, could forge close ties with its neighborhood; it sponsored neighborhood activities and organizations and aimed to assist in the strengthening of local families.
