Whole foods has ~470 stores in North America and the UK, Target has ~1,800 worldwide. And I've never seen a Whole Foods next to a Target. Amazon just quadrupled their real estate footprint!
The Whole Foods flagship store in Boulder directly faces a SuperTarget.
(Also faces the big new Google office. Shopping in a store owned by Amazon with that staring at you was kinda surreal the first few days after the acquisition)
Yes but I wouldn't go to Whole Foods if I was looking to buy a radio. Therefore, expanding to Target would offer more variety than Whole Foods would. That was the point of difference that I saw. Sure if I go to target they have groceries but they're a different type of grocery (as I said initially.. Whole Foods is high end) plus, as I stated, you wouldn't go to Whole Foods if you were looking to buy a camera or a radio or an xbox.
