This dataset was originally created in 2012 by the Office of the Chief Technology Officer. OCTO staff used the Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration’s (ABCA) definition of Full-Service Grocery Stores which outlines criteria for a business to obtain licenses to sell beer, wine, and spirits. Visit abca.dc.gov for full definition.OCTO staff then reviewed the Office of Planning DC Food Policy’s 2018 Food System Assessment listing grocery stores in Appendix D, and comparing these to the ABCA definition. This led to additional locations that meet, or come very close to, the full-service grocery store criteria. The criteria in section one of ABCA’s full-service grocery store determined the initial locations included in this dataset. View the full assessment at dcfoodpolicycouncil.org.Since the initial creation of this dataset, OCTO and the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development (DMPED) staff confirm grocery store operations by comparing datasets from DLCP, media outlets, commercially licensed datasets, and onsite visits.Please review supplemental metadata for more details.

Stores that have implemented all of the program’s criteria at the conclusion of the Retail Challenge, and maintain them for at least one month, receive a recognition award from the Borough President's Office to acknowledge their efforts and dedication to make the healthy choice, the easier choice for their communities.

This is a manually compiled list of stores, which is based on data collected through implementation checklists; these are forms completed by Shop Healthy staff as part of store observations that track whether each criteria has been met.
