Description

The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants & Children (WIC), authorizes retail grocers, called regular WIC vendors, to provide the food benefit. Recently, some states have seen an increase in vendors called WIC-only vendors, who stock only WIC food & accept only WIC vouchers. Both types accept WIC vouchers from WIC state agencies with USDA grant funds. This report determines what effect WIC-only vendors’ growth would have on program expend.: what is known about WIC-only vendors’ growth & their share of the WIC market in recent years; to what extent do WIC-only & regular WIC vendors differ; & what would WIC-only vendors’ contrib. to WIC program expend. have been, if their market share increased. Charts & tables.
