On the day of the closure, a voicemail greeting directed callers to Whole Foods’ eight other stores in San Francisco. “To ensure the safety of our Team Members, we have made the difficult decision to close the Trinity store for the time being,” a Whole Foods spokesperson said in a statement.Employees who worked at the downtown Whole Foods “will be transferred to one of our nearby locations,” the spokesperson said. The downtown location, which is 65,000 square feet and located at 1185 Market St., could reopen if Whole Foods determines that the safety situation has improved, according to the spokesperson.
