Thriving over surviving

It's like Costco. Just healthier.

We want to give a digital high-five to the four founders of Thrive Market.

The cohort was brought together by two shared realizations, says VP of Content Kate Mulling: “First, that living healthy in America is too hard for too many people, and second, that it shouldn’t be that way.”

With the mission to democratize access to healthy living, our grocery shopping has just changed for the better. Thrive Market makes more than 2,500 non-GMO and organic foods, supplements, home, baby and beauty products available online at wholesale prices in normal, everyday sizes.

That means no more having to cobble together a buying club or making massive bulk purchases that wallow in your basement. What this means in cold hard cash terms is 25 to 50 percent off the prices you are used to paying. Take a jar of that all-purpose wonder ingredient: extra-virgin organic coconut oil. We usually pay around $17 for a 16 oz. jar from the Garden of Life brand. On Thrive it’s just $9.
