AI Summary
-
Amends the Grocery Initiative Act to expand the definition of "grocery store" to include mobile grocers
-
Mobile grocers must meet the same requirements as traditional grocery stores: primarily sell grocery products including fresh produce, derive no more than 30% of revenue from tobacco and alcohol, and accept SNAP and WIC benefits
-
Mobile grocers must also be classified under the 2022 North American Industry Classification System code 445110 (supermarket or other grocery retailer)
-
This change would allow mobile grocery operations to qualify for programs and incentives under the Grocery Initiative Act, which targets food deserts in Illinois
