In partnership with local and state health departments as part of the state’s ongoing efforts to make COVID-19 vaccines more convenient for Californians, Food 4 Less and Foods Co today announced that they will host pop-up vaccine clinics at 19 locations throughout California. Some stores will hold one-day clinics while others will offer multiple clinic dates, beginning July 26.
“As California’s grocer, we have the opportunity to reach hundreds of shoppers and associates in communities throughout the state,” said Bryan Kaltenbach, president, Food 4 Less and Foods Co. “We are proud to work alongside state and local health departments to do our part by offering our associates and customers more convenient ways to get vaccinated, and then celebrate with a gift card to help them with grocery shopping.”
Food 4 Less and Foods Co vaccination sites are taking place in the cities of Apple Valley, Bakersfield, Beaumont, Colton, Highland, Los Angeles, Moreno Valley, Riverside, Salinas and San Francisco. The pop-up sites were selected to ensure they would reach high-traffic, high-visibility areas and increase vaccine access in some parts of the state that have experienced lower vaccination rates.
Clinic dates, times and locations:
• Colton Food 4 Less: 1150 N. Pepper Ave, Colton, Aug. 7, Aug. 14, Aug. 21, Aug. 28, 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm
• Highland Food 4 Less: 26529 Highland Ave. Highland, Aug. 6, Aug. 13, Aug. 20, Aug. 27, 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm

“Food 4 Less is committed to the health and safety of our guests, associates and communities, by offering members of the community the ability to receive their COVID-19 vaccine at select locations, said Vanessa Rosales, corporate affairs director, Food 4 Less. “Together, we can help keep communities and workplaces safe.”
