According to the complaint, the FTC believed that the proposed transaction would violate federal <a href="/wiki/Antitrust" class="mw-redirect" title="Antitrust">antitrust</a> laws by eliminating the substantial competition between two close competitors in the operation of premium natural and organic supermarkets nationwide. The FTC contended that if the transaction were to proceed, Whole Foods Market would have the ability to raise prices and reduce quality and services. Both Whole Foods Market and Wild Oats stated their intention to oppose the FTC's complaint vigorously, and a court hearing on the issue was scheduled for July 31 and August 1, 2007.

The court ruled that "mission-driven" consumers (those with an emphasis on social and environmental responsibility) would be adversely affected by the merger because substantial evidence by the FTC showed that Whole Foods intended to raise prices after the consummation of the merger.<a href="#cite_note-52">[52]</a> As part of its effort to combat the ruling, Whole Foods subpoenaed financial records, market studies, and future strategic plans belonging to <a href="/wiki/New_Seasons_Market" title="New Seasons Market">New Seasons Market</a>, a regional competitor based in the Portland area.<a href="#cite_note-53">[53]</a><a href="#cite_note-54">[54]</a> In 2009, Whole Foods agreed to sell the Wild Oats chain.<a href="#cite_note-55">[55]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2017–present:_Amazon_subsidiary">2017–present: Amazon subsidiary</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Whole_Foods_Market&action=edit&section=6" title="Edit section: 2017–present: Amazon subsidiary">edit</a>]</div> In February 2017, Whole Foods Market said it would close nine stores and lowered its financial projections for the year as the natural-foods company struggled with increased competition and slowing sales growth.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] In late April 2017, Whole Foods reported their sixth consecutive quarter of declining sales and announced that the company would be closing nine stores: two each in Colorado and California, and one each in Georgia, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, and Illinois.

Most purchasing occurs at the regional and national levels to negotiate volume discounts with major vendors and distributors. Regional and store buyers focus on local products and any unique products necessary to ensure a neighborhood market feel. Whole Foods says that the company is committed to buying from local producers that meet its quality standards while also increasingly focusing more of their purchasing on producer- and manufacture-direct programs.<a href="#cite_note-80">[80]</a> Some regions have an employee known as a "forager," whose sole duty is to source local products for each store.<a href="#cite_note-81">[81]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Whole_Trade_Guarantee">Whole Trade Guarantee</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Whole_Foods_Market&action=edit&section=11" title="Edit section: Whole Trade Guarantee">edit</a>]</div> In April 2007, Whole Foods Market launched the Whole Trade Guarantee, a purchasing initiative emphasizing ethics and social responsibility concerning products imported from the developing world. The criteria include fair prices for crops, environmentally sound practices, better wages and labor conditions for workers, and the stipulation that one percent of proceeds from Whole Trade-certified products go to the Whole Planet Foundation to support micro-loan programs in developing countries. The company's goal, published in 2007, is to have at least half of its imported products from these countries fully certified by 2017.<a href="#cite_note-82">[82]</a><a href="#cite_note-83">[83]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Efforts">Efforts</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Whole_Foods_Market&action=edit&section=12" title="Edit section: Efforts">edit</a>]</div> Whole Foods Market has a policy of donating at least five percent of its annual net profits to charitable causes.
