GR Bonus Episode: Snap, Shutdowns, And The Penny Problem
A 43-day government shutdown turned food policy into a stress test for everyone from federal agencies to front-end cashiers. SNAP benefits were shut off for the first time ever, courts issued conflicting directives, and retailers faced a moving target of guidance while trying to keep communities fed. We sit down with Stephanie Johnson, Group VP of Government Relations at the National Grocers Association, to break down what actually happened, what changed at the register, and how independent grocers adapted in real time.
If food access, checkout operations, and policy risk affect your business, this is your map for what changed and what’s next. Listen, share with your team, and tell us how you’re preparing for state waivers and rounding rules. If you find this helpful, follow the show, leave a review, and send the episode to a colleague who runs the front end.
