Combating Food Deserts in Chicago

No more food deserts. The drought is over! 

In the city of Chicago, food deserts are a major problem. Entire communities have limited access to fresh fruits and veggies, and therefore suffer from health issues related to diets. This is not an easy problem to solve, but the Food Desert Action team came up with the radical idea- put the whole thing on wheels! WM Display Group was honored to volunteer to design, engineer, and retrofit a donated CTA  bus with metal shelving and baskets to transform a bus into a mobile produce market. “The shelves are our number one talked about item” says founder Steve Casey.
