Cleaner Carts in Chevy Chase

If you shop at Chevy Chase Supermarket on Connecticut Avenue, you may stay healthier than if you shop elsewhere.  This Chevy Chase grocer has installed a machine that disinfects their grocery carts, says an article on the Gazette web site.

The machine is called PureCart, and it’s pretty much a car wash for carts. As they roll through the cleaner, the carts are sprayed with a disinfectant solution that kills 99 percent of germs. This is a big deal, as a recent study found E. coli bacteria on a whopping 72 percent of 85 carts tested in four states. An even bigger deal is that the store was featured in a segment of the CBS Evening News.

But the two brothers who own the store didn’t install the PureCart for fame. They did it because they felt it was what their customers would want and would appreciate. As one of the brothers stated, “There is more to being a neighborhood store than being in the neighborhood.”

So if you shop in Chevy Chase, you can choose a cleaner alternative. And not every city gets to say that.
