traditional benefits often found at retail locations. As part of
the company's Five Founding Principles, Natural Grocers
supports all employees with:
- Competitive pay, including the exclusive Natural Grocers
Vitamin Bucks program, which provides their "Crew" (what Natural
Grocers calls their employees) with an extra $1-per-hour
worked of in-store credit.
- Conscious efforts to promote from within and provide Crew
ongoing training to set them up for success and growth. As an
example, the average tenure of store managers in the Oklahoma region is 8.9 years, and 4.8 years
for department managers.

Natural Grocers' products, provide employees with substantial
savings on high-quality groceries and supplements to help them

accounts; short- and long-term disability and life insurance;

extensive free nutrition education programs.
- Birthday Bonus Pay: equal to one day's pay, which originated
from founder Margaret Isely's tradition of celebrating
the birthdays of all employees by preparing lunch for them. Once
the company became larger, her children, the current executives of
the company, implemented the policy of providing each employee with
a full day's pay on their birthday to say, "thank you for choosing
to work with us."
