The goal is to open this year.

Nair founded Savi Provisions in Atlanta in 2009. He was inspired by markets in New York — filled with personality — and evolving shopping habits. It has since grown to 10 locations, with a handful more in the development pipeline, Nair says.

He sees room for as many as eight stores in the Charlotte market.
