UNFI organic-food value play-Barron's Online
From the "Weekday Trader" section: United Natural Foods (UNFI), a Whole Foods Market (WFMI) distributor, may be worth a critical review. Despite a stock pull-back and a bumpy Q3, growth catalysts for United Natural include continuing strength in its sales, an improved distribution network, and growing demand for organic foods. Furtehr, Michael Warshawsky, managing director at Barrett Associates, argues that as more conventional grocers carry organic products and as organic grocers expand, UNFI will probably be the only company to service them. :theflyonthewall
