This performance aligns with recent momentum in its e-commerce segment, which grew 27% year-over-year in Q2 2025.

A new Sprouts Rewards initiative has also shown early success, with members shopping more frequently and spending more. However, sustaining this growth may become challenging as market penetration rises and comparative benchmarks become tougher.
