When the pandemic hit the Brookdale Chambrel senior living community in Williamsburg, Virginia, Nancy Crowell knew hopping in the car and heading to the local Harris Teeter supermarket was out of the question.
The virus was spreading fast, and Brookdale s residents were being encouraged to stay put. Staff set up computers in the main common room and began teaching residents how to open online accounts to order groceries.
Crowell s first attempt to order from Kroger Co. s Harris Teeter chain failed, so the 85-year-old retiree switched to another local grocer s website only to discover an annoyance familiar to legions of online grocery shoppers: substitutions of her favorite brands and products.

“Even though we were doing kind of everything to keep our store clean and sanitized daily and limit traffic coming into the store, I just was not that comfortable with the idea of encouraging seniors to come out at what was the peak of the first [COVID-19] surge,” said Brahm Ahmadi, CEO and president of the store. 
The store sits just a few blocks from two large senior living facilities and serves a senior population that has a high percentage of low-income people and households without cars, Ahmadi said.  ....
