GroceryDive.com reports that Costco’s sampling and food court programs don’t have a large direct impact on the company’s bottom line, but they do round out the store experience that the club retailer relies so heavily upon and has been so eager to fully reinstate as pandemic restrictions lift.

After pulling its sampling stations last March, the club retailer implemented some stations that handed out pre-prepared products like crackers and cookies in individual containers that couldn’t be consumed inside the store.
