MOM’s Organic Market opens first Baltimore store

WASHINGTON — MOM’s Organic Market will open a store in Baltimore’s Hampden neighborhood this weekend, its first store in Charm City.

The store, at 711 W. 40th Street, will be MOM’s eighth location in Maryland. It has five stores in Northern Virginia, as well as one in D.C.’s Ivy City neighborhood. Later this year, MOM’s other openings include Center City in downtown Philadelphia, Cherry Hill, New Jersey and White Marsh, Maryland.

The expansion outside of the immediate D.C. area is the first steps in what could be larger regional growth.

Success outside of D.C. “will be pivotal in giving us the confidence to expand throughout the region, and possibly further into the Northeast,” the company said at the time of its Bryn Mawr store opening in 2013.

The new Hampden store will include free car charging stations and recycling drop off for everything from wine corks, to CFL bulbs, eye glasses, batteries, shoes and more.

MOM’s Organic Market was founded by CEO Scott Nash, at age 22 in 1987, with a $100 investment as a small organic delivery service run out of his mom’s garage.
