A City Hall source told The San Francisco Standard the company cited deteriorating street conditions around drug use and crime near the store as the driving factors behind the closure.

They're finally admitting it's a real problem? Because they weren't for a very long time. This has gone way beyond "hire more cops". What has to happen is a fundamental reconsideration of law enforcement precepts in city hall and in academia and in the media and in the citizens at large. It isn't happening.

A lot of schadenfreude there!

Talk about the chickens coming home to roost!

The most woke company and the most woke shithole city getting their comeuppance.

“Organic food giant Whole Foods opened a new ‘flagship’ location at Trinity Place in the city’s Tenderloin district “

In the TENDERLOIN?? The toilet bowl of SF?!

What did they expect?

Don’t blame China.

This is all our doing. China is just taking advantage of our stupidity, and who can blame them.

You think we wouldn’t be doing the same if the roles were reversed?

Correct. We have a Subway in the county that seems to attract zombies driving through. No idea why they always end up there. The manager walks the parking lot and they’ll be passed out on the wheel so he has to call the cops. Most of the time, they are couriers.

“”closed due to rampant drug use in restrooms, violence towards staff - and theft of ALL 250 shopping baskets””

And you were expecting....what?

This is status quo for much of liberal land. Next thing you know, the buns will break into the closed stone and pitch their tents (next to the liquor aisle). Some liberal judge will rule that all the tent dwellers have established ‘residency’ and have the ‘right’ to remain.

Can’t happen? Think again. During Covid, San Francisco placed the homeless in hotels. They actually delivered drugs and alcohol to the bums at the hotel.

I can just see some liberal judge ordering the store, even though it is closed, to keep the liquor aisle stocked so the bums occupying the store can ‘access’ the alcohol.

Why did they open this store in the first place? it would not take a genius to predict this outcome. You can not open a business in a jungle. Now there will be complaints about a food desert.

Whole Foods Closes Its “Flagship” San Francisco Store After Just A Year Due To Crime

It’s yet another story of a major company leaving a U.S. city: this time, it’s a Whole Foods in San Francisco that is closing after barely being open for a year. The location in question is a 64,000 sq.ft. “Flagship” Whole Foods store that you just know the company wouldn’t be closing down unless things truly had run amok.
