Interesting analysis of how existing retail infrastructure in "food deserts" might be the key to reversing chronic disease at scale. The counterintuitive insight: the same distribution networks that created the problem have the infrastructure advantages to solve it, but only now are market incentives aligning. Key points:
19,000+ strategically located stores Existing supply chain relationships Customer acquisition costs near zero Market timing around food-as-medicine trends
Worth reading for the systems thinking around how transformation actually happens vs. how we think it should happen.
