Whole Foods Market Superior, CO Skylight Retrofit

Back in 1980, Whole Foods started out with one small store in Austin, Texas. Today, they’re the world’s leader in natural and organic foods, with more than 360 stores in North America and the United Kingdom.

Whole Foods Market Superior is committed to selling the highest quality natural and organic products while satisfying and delighting our customers seven days a week.

One of the ways Whole Foods delighted their customers was to contract for a skylight retrofit by adding skylights to their store. Whole Foods understands that value of natural daylighting and how that influences the purchasing of their clients. When your store is bright and cheery then your customers feel good about visiting your store more often.
