Sedano’s Supermarkets has begun accepting over-the-counter (OTC) and Flex benefit cards at all of its stores, enabling eligible members to use them to buy approved food items.
Sedano’s aims to expand access to essential grocery items while supporting the health and well-being of its customers, many of whom are seniors or caregivers managing special dietary and medical needs.
“At Sedano’s, we care deeply about the families we serve,” said Pedro Mesa, director of marketing at Florida-based Sedano’s. “That’s why we’re proud to accept OTC and Flex benefit cards in-store – so our customers can easily use their benefits to bring home fresh, quality foods that nourish their loved ones. It’s one more way we’re helping our community live healthier, happier lives.”
Approved food items covered by health plans include staples such as fruits, vegetables, dairy products and whole grains. Eligible members are encouraged to check with their healthcare providers to confirm participation.
