专家警告，纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼开设多家市属杂货店的计划可能会伤害社区杂货店、消耗纳税人资金，并削弱私营企业的竞争力。

随着纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼推进市属杂货店计划，经济学家和当地企业主警告称，该提案可能会压垮小型杂货店，同时让纳税人背负巨额账单。
这项举措是曼达尼竞选时的一项核心承诺，旨在在全市范围内设立市属超市，以降低食品成本。
曼哈顿研究所的亚当·勒霍迪认为，纽约市可以通过私营部门合作和现有援助计划更高效地解决食品负担能力问题，而非亲自运营杂货店。
“我认为这本质上就是一种分心之举，而且是相当浪费的分心之举，”勒霍迪告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“有更简单、更好的方法来解决这个问题。”

据市长办公室透露，首家门店预计将于2027年在亨茨角的布朗克斯区开业，作为前斯波福德少年拘留所改造项目“半岛”的一部分。
这项更大规模的重建计划包括740套经济适用房、超过5万平方英尺的公共开放空间、3万平方英尺的轻工业空间以及超过5万平方英尺的社区设施。其中还将包含一个2万平方英尺的食品市场，旨在服务南布朗克斯区。

勒霍迪还警告称，市属商店可能会让周边小型杂货店处于不利地位，因为这些项目将获得私营企业无法享有的公共支持。
“没错，价格可能会便宜一点，但这是以其他企业无法持续运营为代价的，”他说。
他认为，该市还通过补贴这些项目，牺牲了宝贵的公共土地和潜在收入。
“那块土地是有价值的，”勒霍迪说。“免费出让土地，纳税人再次蒙受损失，我们也失去了本可以用于其他项目的收入。”
第二家市属食品市场计划于明年在东哈莱姆区的拉马尔凯塔公共市场开业。该市计划斥资约3000万美元建设该门店。
批评人士质疑该社区是否需要另一家杂货店。福克斯新闻数字频道的分析显示，在拟建场地步行35分钟范围内，约有45家杂货店。

这些商店包括全食超市和利德尔等大型连锁店，也有小型社区市场和杂货店。该地区公共交通也十分便利，多条地铁和公交线路让居民可以便捷前往附近的杂货店。
一些当地杂货店店主表示，市属市场可能会抢走顾客，挤压本就微薄的利润空间。

尽管附近有大量杂货店可供选择，一些当地店主仍担心，市属市场将凭借公共支持提供更低价格，从而挤压现有商家的生存空间。
“这当然会影响我们店，”萨拉·康说道，她是一家CTown超市的经理，该店距离拉马尔凯塔步行约35分钟，或乘坐地铁一站地。
“很多人步行20到30分钟来这里购物，”她向福克斯新闻数字频道解释道。“如果他们找到更便宜的超市，我不认为他们还愿意跑这么远。这肯定会影响小型杂货店。”
“我希望我们不会流失顾客，”康补充道。
在拉马尔凯塔以北约30分钟步行路程处，位于第128街和弗雷德里克·道格拉斯大道的一家超市经理乔尔·马丁内斯表示，其影响可能取决于与拟建场地的距离。

“我希望这不会影响到我们，”马丁内斯在与福克斯新闻数字频道的电话采访中说道。“这家店离我们有点远，这是好事。但它会影响到离得更近的小商家。”
社区杂货店和小型超市是纽约市社区的标志性业态，通常是附近居民的主要食品采购渠道。

其他城市也曾出现过类似的政府所有并运营的杂货店和市场提案，包括波士顿。
亚特兰大官员似乎率先开展了这项工作，开设了一家市属杂货店，旨在改善服务不足社区的食品获取渠道。

‘Wasteful distraction’: Experts slam Mamdani’s taxpayer-funded grocery stores
May 24, 2026 1:27pm EDT / Fox News
The first location is expected to open in 2027 in the Bronx, with a $30M East Harlem market slated for next year
By Amanda Macias, Fox News
Experts warn NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s plan to open several city-backed grocery stores could hurt bodegas, drain taxpayer dollars and undercut private businesses.
NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!
As New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani moves forward with plans for city-owned grocery stores, economists and local business owners warn the proposal could crush small grocers while leaving taxpayers with a hefty bill.
The initiative, a key Mamdani campaign pledge, would establish city-backed supermarkets across the city in an effort to lower food costs.
Adam Lehodey of the Manhattan Institute believes the city could address food affordability more efficiently through private-sector partnerships and existing assistance programs rather than operating grocery stores itself.
“I think really it’s a distraction and a pretty wasteful distraction,” Lehodey told Fox News Digital. “There’s an easier and better way to solve the problem.”

The first location is expected to open in 2027 in the Bronx neighborhood of Hunts Point as part of The Peninsula redevelopment project at the former Spofford Juvenile Detention Facility, according to the mayor’s office.
The larger redevelopment plan includes 740 affordable housing units, more than 50,000 square feet of public open space, 30,000 square feet of light industrial space and more than 50,000 square feet of community facilities. It would also include a 20,000-square-foot grocery market intended to serve the South Bronx.

Lehodey also warned the city-backed stores could put small neighborhood grocers at a disadvantage because the projects would receive public support that private businesses do not.
“Yeah, the prices might be a little bit cheaper, but that comes at the cost of other businesses running sustainable operations,” he said.
He argued the city is also sacrificing valuable public land and potential revenue by subsidizing the projects.

“That land does have value,” Lehodey said. “By giving it out for free, the taxpayer again is losing money, and we’re losing revenue that could have been spent on other things.”
A second city-backed grocery market is slated to open next year at La Marqueta, a public market space in East Harlem. The city plans to spend roughly $30 million to build the location.
Critics question whether another grocery option is needed in the neighborhood. Roughly 45 grocery stores are located within a 35-minute walk of the proposed site, according to a Fox News Digital analysis.

Those stores range from major chains, including Whole Foods and Lidl, to smaller neighborhood markets and bodegas. The area is also well served by public transit, with multiple subway and bus lines giving residents several ways to reach nearby grocery options.
Some local grocers say the city-backed market could siphon away customers and hurt already thin profit margins.

Despite the abundance of nearby grocery options, some local store owners fear the city-backed market could undercut existing businesses by offering lower prices backed by public support.
“Of course it will affect this store,” said Sarah Kang, manager at a CTown Supermarkets location about a 35-minute walk south, or one subway stop, from La Marqueta.
“A lot of people walk 20 to 30 minutes to get here,” she explained to Fox News Digital. “If they find a cheaper supermarket, I don’t think they’ll be willing to make that trip. It’s going to affect small grocery stores. Definitely.”
“I hope we don’t lose customers,” Kang added.
About a 30-minute walk north of La Marqueta, Joel Martinez, a manager of a supermarket at 128th Street and Frederick Douglass Boulevard, said the impact may depend on proximity to the proposed site.

“I hope it doesn’t impact us,” Martinez said in a call with Fox News Digital. “The store will be a little far from us, so that’s good. But it will affect smaller businesses that are closer.”
Bodegas and small grocery stores are a staple of New York City neighborhoods, often serving as primary food sources for nearby residents.

Similar proposals for local government-owned and operated grocery stores and markets have surfaced in other cities, including Boston.
Atlanta officials appear to have pioneered the effort, opening a city-backed grocery store aimed at improving food access in underserved communities.
