The Raley's in Tracy, Calif. is the third store to achieve Gold Level Certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's GreenChill Partnership, which works with supermarket industries through a cooperative alliance to reduce their emissions of ozone-depleting and greenhouse gases.
Raley's in Petaluma, Calif. was the first store in California to receive Gold-Level Certification on Earth Day in 2009. Nob Hill Foods in San Jose (on Snell Ave.) has also earned Gold-Level Certification.
To date, these three stores remain the only Gold-Level Certified locations on the West Coast.
