Peachtree Natural Foods




Peachtree Natural Foods is a natural food store based in Columbus, Georgia. It is owned by Duke Liberatore, the co-host of the nation's number one nationally syndicated health talk show, 'Duke and the Doctor'. Active for over 20 years, Peachtree is dedicated to supplying high-quality supplements, vitamins, organic food, superfoods, and herbal remedies to the local area.
The store's opening times are 10am until 7pm Monday to Friday, and 10am until 5pm on Saturday. It is closed on Sundays.

The Four Basic Principles
Peachtree Natural Foods was founded on the four basic principles of value, service, education, and quality. Let's take a closer look at these principles, and how the company applies them:
  • Value - Peachtree ensures that its products are excellent value for money, and that there are many sales and promotions available to customers throughout the year. The store has a newsletter that reports the monthly specials, including managers' specials. It also passes through any savings from discounts made by its vendors. Also, because Peachtree is located in a military town, the company likes to support its servicemen and women by offering promotions that are exclusive to them and their families.
  • Service - Peachtree prides itself on its high-quality customer service. If you cannot find a product in the store that you want to buy, then you can tell a member of staff about it and they will see if they can order it. Also, the staff are pleased to help with questions about their products. The natural food and supplement industry is daunting for many people, especially for those whom are new to it. But Peachtree's informed staff will empower you to make the decisions that will improve your health and wellness.
  • Education - Peachtree's associates are knowledgeable in the field of natural health, and they are always encouraged to expand upon their existing knowledge base at every possible opportunity. Aside from the thorough written exam that they are required to sit after ninety days of employment, Peachtree associates are also expected to attend product training courses and seminars every month to remain abreast of new developments in an ever-evolving industry.
  • Quality - Peachtree is determined to ensure that all its products meet the industry's highest standards. Most of the products the company sells are hand-picked by a certified medical and naturopathic doctor, and its vendors are chosen carefully by its owners. Since the company recognizes that there is an increasing need for retailers to provide effective natural cures for their health-conscious clients, it endeavors to sell products that are tailored to specific needs. If you are intolerant of gluten, you will find many products that are gluten-free. If you are diabetic, you will find products that are sugar-free, or which contain healthy sugar substitutes. If you want supplements that contain no artificial binders, then you will find them. And you will certainly find food that is free of aspartame, pesticides, MSG, growth hormones, and other poisons that are becoming commonplace on supermarket shelves.
Why Should We Support Stores Like Peachtree?
Quite simply, stores like Peachtree Natural Foods are becomingly increasingly rare to find. As national and multinational chains continue to dominate the high streets with no signs of slowing down, it is refreshing to find stores that are locally-owned, health-conscious, and with management that are genuinely interested in the products they sell and how their customers respond to them. It is not easy to start and maintain a natural food store; their business is assaulted from all angles by larger companies that sell unhealthier food for cheaper prices. Therefore, if you value your community and your health, then it's always good to support businesses like Peachtree Natural Foods that value the same.
