Healthfully has closed on 4th Street

Last Monday, we posted how several EVG readers were worried about the longterm health of Healthfully Organic Market, 98 E. Fourth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue. The shop had been keeping irregular hours and unveiled a 40-percent-off inventory sale.

Unfortunately, in this case, there was reason for concern: Workers cleared out the store on Friday...





We heard a variety of [unofficial] reasons for the closure, from the expiration of the lease to a decline in business due to the Dolphin Gym closing next door.

Worrying about Healthfully

Several EVG readers have expressed concern in recent weeks over the longterm health of Healthfully Organic Market, 98 E. Fourth St. between First Avenue and Second Avenue.

Per one reader: "The shelves are looking sparse ... and they seem to be posting their hours weekly."

As of this week, the shop has been closed during posted business hours. There's no word for patrons about a temporary closure on the door or elsewhere. (Healthfully's Facebook page has not been updated since 2012.)

And yesterday, a reader noted that there's a 40 percent off everything inventory sale going on...



At the end of the summer of 2011, Kim Kardashian, her sister Kourtney and 50 photographers discretely shopped at Healthfully.
