Grocery-Anchored Retail
Improving neighborhoods through expanded retail choices

Research indicates that residents that lack sufficient access to full-service grocery stores suffer from higher rates of heart disease and diabetes. CDF invests in developments that broaden retail access in underserved areas.

CDF funds retail developments that:

Involve new construction or substantial renovation, with total real estate costs in excess of $5 million

Are financed in part with commercial debt
