Organic Dream Comes True
VIRGINIA BEACH (Sept. 2) ―Thirty years ago, Archana Misra dreamed of making organic groceries easily accessible for all. She spent ten years finding investors to lend her the money for her first store while she worked as a hospital nutritionist, advising people on their food choices.
“I was always working,” Ms.Misra explained. “Thankfully, my friends and family supported my dream.”
Those early efforts have surely paid off: Full Future Organics is now a successful chain of grocery stores. The four stores have seen exponential growth and Misra has become a star among food aficionados with her widely praised magazine, Well-Seasoned Organics.
In the past year, Full Future Organics has gone beyond groceries and added special features to each location. The Virginia Beach and Norfolk stores were expanded to include open kitchens that offer weekly cooking classes. Last month, the Alexandria location opened a restaurant, Future Plate, located next to the grocery store. The trendy eatery serves upscale dishes in a casual atmosphere, and it has already received rave reviews. Finally, the Richmond store added a bath-and-beauty section. It sells a wide variety of organic products, including shampoos and soaps that are made in-house.
Full Future Organics does not plan on stopping there. Misra and her team are currently working out the logistics of an online grocery store that would service customers throughout Virginia.
