grocery.

A much-needed full-service grocery store is coming to Troy’s North Central neighborhood. Bargain Grocery, a community-focused market operated by the nonprofit Compassion Coalition, will anchor First Columbia’s redevelopment at 558 River Street. Conveniently located near Hoosick Street with ample parking and CDTA access, the store will provide affordable, high-quality food to an underserved area.

Bargain Grocery sources surplus and cosmetically imperfect food at a discount, allowing them to offer low prices to all, with additional discreet support for those in need. Profits are reinvested into the community through food distributions and essential goods—a successful model already proven in Utica.
