Two new mini-format Whole Foods markets are opening in NYC this summer
Whole Foods Market is doubling down on downtown with two new Daily Shop locations set to open soon in Manhattan. Designed for fast-paced urbanites who still crave their organic greens and artisanal cheese, these scaled-down versions of the grocery giant are packed with local finds, cult-favorite products and convenience-driven perks.
The first to open is in the East Village's StuyTown development on May 14 at 409 East 14th Street, with a second location arriving in Hell's Kitchen on June 4 at 301 West 50th Street. At just 10,000 and 8,500 square feet respectively, these stores are a fraction of the size of typical Whole Foods—but promise a full-flavored shopping experience. Both locations will host their grand openings at 8 am, offering free coffee, breakfast bites and limited-edition tote bags to the first 300 customers.
New Yorkers can expect a curated mix of more than 400 local products from beloved brands like Mimi Cheng's, The White Moustache and Mill Hollow Maple Syrup. There'll be picnic-ready prepared foods, new summer bakery items like strawberry cherry pistachio crumble pie and a drool-worthy cheese selection spanning everything from Cowgirl Creamery to imported Italian wedges.
The StuyTown shop also features a Juice & Java café, slinging smoothies, sandwiches and sweets. And on opening day, Whole Foods Market will award Harlem-based Uncle Waithley's a low-interest Local Producer Loan to help the small-batch ginger beer company scale.
Both stores mark the continued rollout of the Daily Shop concept, which launched on the Upper East Side last fall. Alongside their sleek aisles and grab-and-go meals, the new shops underscore the grocer's local commitment, supporting nonprofits like The Bowery Mission and donating to Hell's Kitchen Farm Project. And with both addresses set in neighborhoods known for vibrant weekend foot traffic and bustling local street fairs, these mini markets are well-positioned to become essential pit stops for your next picnic, park day or stoop party.
Prime members will get to enjoy their usual perks, including extra discounts, palm payment via Amazon Oneself and app-based checkout, making it even easier to pop in, stock up and keep moving.

'It is a painful epilogue that arrived after numerous attempts to find concrete solutions that could guarantee the continuation of the project. 'Unfortunately, the current conditions do not make that possible. "In the last four years, the owners made significant financial efforts, investing €50m in liquidity, with €12m alone in the last season, in an attempt to relaunch Spal and give the city of Ferrara a team suited to its history and passion. 'However, the results were not satisfactory, nor proportional to the level of investment.'

Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford in another twist as UFC boss Dana White says he IS promoting super-fight
DANA WHITE has insisted he WILL promote the Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford fight - marking yet another twist. Canelo is due to defend his undisputed super-middleweight titles against unbeaten American Crawford in September. 3 Dana White insists he will promote Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford Credit: @danawhite And Saudi boxing supremo Turki Alalshikh - the financial backer behind the bout - initially announced that UFC boss White would promote. The super-fight was set for the Las Vegas Raiders' NFL stadium with Netflix on board to broadcast that bout. That was until Alalshikh made a U-turn and claimed Saudi-based Sela would promote and it would instead be on pay-per-view. White was probed on Alalshikh's comments after UFC 316 - but hit back to maintain he will be involved in the fight. READ MORE IN boxing JAKE TO SAY IT Jake Paul blasts Canelo's win over Scull and but says shock bout WILL happen He said: "I'm promoting the fight. I'll let you guys know when it's time to let you guys know." TKO Holdings - who own the UFC and WWE - signed a multi-year partnership to establish a boxing promotion alongside Saudi Arabia's Turki Alalshikh. As well as a UFC-style boxing league, two super-fights were set to be promoted by TKO and White every year. And Canelo's blockbuster against Crawford was due to kickstart the partnership. 3 CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS Then all of a sudden, Alalshikh told Ring Magazine - which he owns - that the date of the bout was set to change. And he was also considering having the bout move to New York or Los Angeles - opposed to the £1.5BILLION, 65,000-seat Raiders Stadium. Three-weight world champion Vasily Lomachenko retires after more than 400 FIGHTS in lengthy video It caused huge confusion with the news the fight would also be under the Riyadh Season banner and on PPV - suggesting White and Netflix were out of the picture. But, White clarified: "Listen, when we're at work in UFC headquarters, I'm in my own little world, man. I don't pay attention to any of that s***. 'I know what's going on, I know what we're doing, I don't really pay attention to that stuff." White has partnered with Alalshikh before having held two events in Riyadh in the past. Canelo, 34, beat William Scull, 32, to regain the 168lb undisputed thrown in early May as part of his four-bout deal with Alalshikh. Meanwhile Crawford, 37, has not fought since moving up to 154lb to win the WBA title against Israil Madrimov, 30, in August 2024. 3 Crawford with Turki Alalshikh and Canelo

Neil Lennon opens up on James Bord's data drive at Dunfermline Athletic and recruitment priorities
Neil Lennon is convinced data analytics can help him bring success to Dunfermline – but insists he will still have the casting vote on recruitment. Co-owners James Bord and Evan Sofer are determined to bring their background knowledge in data and artificial intelligence to their work with the Pars. Bord is the founder of California-based Short Circuit Science, which claims to 'gain deep insights with AI and computer vision'. He has also worked in the past with Brighton owner Tony Bloom and Brentford majority shareholder Matthew Benham, both of whom have a background in data and statistics. Lennon is relishing to working with Bord and his team in that field and believes the recruitment of the likes of Jeremiah Chilokoa-Mullen, Connor Young and Tashan Oakley-Boothe in January is evidence that it works. However, with over a decade in the dugout as manager at the likes of Celtic, Hibernian and Bolton Wanderers, Lennon is also adamant that it will not be the be-all and end-all when it comes to bringing the right players to East End Park. 'Brighton are the classic example,' he said of clubs' increasing dependency on number-crunching. 'Brentford as well. Their recruitment's fantastic. 'And it's all about recruitment. It's 80 per cent of my job. That'll help me bring success to the football club. 'But it's not set in stone, James' philosophy on data analytics either. 'If I like a player or if I said, 'I don't think we should go for this player', he would have no qualms about doing that. 'But he does bring a different variation on how you recruit a player and what to look at. So, that's really interesting and it makes you understand better. 'You need the evidence, you need the results of that. 'And already with [Chilokoa-]Mullen, already with Young, already with Oakley-Boothe, I think there's evidence that it can be successful.' He went on: 'We talk about it and I talk to some of the people that work under him as well. 'So, for example, last season, 'can you send me clips of variations on set-plays, corners, free-kicks?'. That type of thing. 'The next thing you get video clips and ideas on different variations on your set-plays. Again, it's a real help.' And Lennon knows exactly the areas of the Dunfermline team he needs to strengthen as a priority. With Deniz Mehmet the only goalkeeper at the club, after a season playing back-up to on-loan Celtic youngster Tobi Oluwayemi, and with the Pars having scored only 28 times in 36 league games, they need additions in attack and defence. 'Certainly in terms of recruitment, there are certain types that I think are needed in this division. At both ends of the pitch,' he added. 'Obviously, we need to look at the goalkeeping situation as well, and a centre-forward. 'Those are the two positions where we want to have big improvements on.'
