    Nothing prevents US businesses from doing the same. Just greed (in the interest of squeezing every penny of shareholder value) by instead stocking as little as possible that can go bad quickly. Which means minimal fresh foods. So shareholders get a couple extra pennies in exchange for the entire business being seen as a piece of shit with crappy products.

    Other businesses do just fine with fresh food, look at something like QT for a direct example. They even have made to order products, not just product delivered daily.
