Ghetto Grocer Update.

Here’s a candidate for analysis by the recently retired Ghetto Grocer.

“No organizations track the number, but sources familiar with the situation and some of the remaining grocers suggest that fewer than 10 Black-owned supermarkets remain across the entire country.”

It seems like an unexpected casualty of the end of de jure racial segregation in America some 54 years ago has been the nearly complete disappearance of black-owned small business from black communities. Once segregation was abolished blacks en masse patronized white businesses they had been previously banned from and abandoned the black owned shops. Of course now all the small convenience stores and bodegas in urban black majority neighborhoods are predominately owned and operated by non-black immigrants from Asia and the Middle-East.

What’s your take on the issue James? Why are there so few black-owned grocery stores today? What causes the urban ‘food deserts’?

Jeremy, when I got into the business in 1981 there were more than 10 black owned supermarkets in Baltimore City.

Reality check.

In 1981 there were more black-owned supermarkets in Baltimore than there are now nationwide!

Two chains served the black community of Baltimore, Superpride, which went out of business about 15 years ago after a 10 year decline which began with expanded gang violence making shopping and working in such locations more dangerous.

Mister Baynes' Chain Stop, Shop & Save [Known as Stop, Shop & Rob] finally gave up the ghost over the last few years.

Do note that those larger outfits who have taken over these locations have not made a profit, with many closing.

We cannot simply blame this on shoplifting being three times higher among blacks of the same economic level as whites, which is my observation.

Indeed, corporate outfits seek out such high crime ghetto locations because black customers spend so much more on food than whites, that the extra shrink is often seen as the price of doing more business!

I see four reasons:

1. War Zone Conditions

Fewer supermarkets of any kind can afford to operate in majority black cities. This is very recent and has been part of the trend too open looting, not shoplifting. Security costs are driving all retailers out of majority black cities. Detroit, I think, only has one supermarket. Even my local liquor store had to stop selling snacks for they were simply taken and walked off in plain view.

2. Black on Black Crime

There is one sad fact about being a black man running a business in a black area. He is preyed upon by blacks more frequently then a white-owned business, as his predators do not expect the police to back him like they would a white man or corporate outfit. However, the recent reduction in protective police function in urban areas has eclipsed this traditional cause. Now all merchants are in the looter's sights. However, the long history of black men starting up businesses in their own area, only to have the neighbors literally knock down his door after he closes for the night and then walk off with the inventory, meant that when general urban decline began for retail, that there were very few black grocers in a strong position, rather they were holding on but barely.

3. A Failed Business Model

The fact is that all supermarket retail chains in America have failed and have been acquired by wholesalers, or they have joined a co-op like IGA or Wakefern. Black companies, to my knowledge, never controlled a wholesale outfit, and, due to the reasons noted above, those black grocers who survived the crime did not have the liquidity to buy their way into a co-op, which is very expensive. Indeed, no failing or struggling retail food outlet can afford to join a coop. Co-ops are for profitable niche grocers on the low end and the high end. The blacks who pioneered supermarkets in cities to serve their community were following the doomed suburban supermarket model and then accruing losses and expenses attempting to harden this open format into a giant bodega.

4. Dollar Stores

These are the wholesaler-owned retail outlets which are bedeviling and replacing traditional grocery stores in the city and close suburbs. The low brand and freshness value of their inventory, with no national brands in stock and no fresh meats, prevents the daylight looting that plagues traditional grocers, as those in urban America [including virtually all blacks and police officers] who buy stolen goods from looters, demand only the most elite brands: Dove, Duracel, Tide, Snickers, etc. and fresh meat and seafood, none of which are sold at dollar stores.

This is basically the entire leftist strategy, spoken honestly:

Another facet of Charlie, although not nearly as important to him as his music, was his philosophy. To a large extent, this “philosophy” was a con, something he dreamed up to impress his followers, but he probably believed some of it.

The core of this philosophy was a kind of Armageddon. Charlie preached that the black man was going to rise up and start killing the whites and turn the cities in to an inferno of racial revenge. The black man would win this war, but wouldn’t be able to hang onto the power he seized because of innate inferiority…

Helter Skelter would begin, according to one of Charlie’s devotees, “with the black man going into white people’s homes and ripping off the white people, physically destroying them. A couple of spades from Watts would come up into the Bel Air and Beverly Hills district…and just really wipe some people out, just cutting bodies up and smearing blood and writing things on the wall in blood…all kinds of super-atrocious crimes that would really make the white man mad…until there was open revolution in the streets, until they finally won and took over. Then the black man would assume the white man’s karma. He would then be the establishment…”

Charlie and the Family would survive this racial holocaust because they would be hiding in the desert safe from the turmoil of the cities. He pulled from the Book of Revelations, the concept of a “bottomless pit,” the entrance of which, according to Charlie, was a cave underneath Death Valley that led down to a city of gold. This paradise was where Charlie and his Family were going to wait out this war. Afterwards, when the black man failed at keeping power, Charlie’s Family, which they estimated would have multiplied to 144,000 by that time, would then take over from the black man and rule the cities.

“It will be our world then,” Charlie told his followers. “There would be no one else, except for us and the black servants.”

Whites should not imagine they will be able to get away with the same things that blacks do.
