Is Richard’s Foodporium on the verge of closing their doors?

Debra Maher

Our names are Debbie and Larry and we are trying to save our company! We had 17 amazing stores at 1 time and now are down to just 4. Richard’s Foodporium has been a locally owned health food store in SWFL for over 30 years. 2 years ago, a Canadian based company had their investors purchase us and unfortunately mismanaged our money and ran us into the ground. They are close to shutting our doors and declaring bankruptcy. That means the 40+ employees, some of which have been here 30 + years will lose their jobs. Prior to the investors buying our stores, we were flourishing, making a profit and helping all the local customers maintain a healthy lifestyle. Especially during covid, we were happy and able help our customers stay healthy during such an unfortunate time.

We have an opportunity for a law firm to come in and try to sell the company and keep our doors open. We the associates want to buy the company and continue to supply our communities with great products, caring faces, friendly service, and have a place they can turn to when they need help.
