Dear Daily Table Community,
With heavy hearts, we share that Daily Table will be closing our doors within the next few days. This was not an easy decision. For the past 10 years, we have had the honor of serving neighborhoods across Greater Boston, working alongside our community to make affordable, nutritious food accessible to all.
We are proud to have served over 3 million customers, returning over $16 million in savings to the community while removing the barriers to healthy food.
The past several years have been particularly hard; navigating the challenges of COVID-19, plus the pressures of facing historically high levels of food price increases, to the current uncertain and difficult funding environment, sustaining Daily Table has become increasingly difficult. Without immediate funding to bridge us through 2025, we cannot continue. After careful consideration, we have come to the heartbreaking conclusion that we can no longer continue operations.
Please know that due to the urgency of the situation, we were unable to individually reach out to all of our longstanding partners, and we apologize if this news comes as a shock. We understand that this comes at a time when other food access resources and organizations are at risk, which makes this news even more difficult to share. We hope that those who have been generous to Daily Table will continue investing in other organizations to meet the ongoing need.
We know that many households have come to count on Daily Table. That reality weighs heavily on us. For those seeking support, see below for some resources to help access food.
We are deeply grateful to every person, and organization, who has supported our mission since 2015 — donors, suppliers, customers, volunteers, and community partners. Your belief in the power of dignity, health, and access has enabled us to impact hundreds of thousands of lives.
While immediate challenges have led to the closure of our stores, we remain as committed to the mission of Daily Table as ever and firmly believe that this model can be replicated elsewhere
Our stores will be working to sell our inventory over the next several days, and we invite you to come shop one last time. All items will be deeply discounted until we cease operations.
Thank you for being part of this important journey with us.
With sincere appreciation,
Daily Table Board of Directors
