There are "food deserts", or large areas where it isn't profitable to open a grocery store, so no one does. The people that live there have no healthy food options. The state owned stores would operate in those unserved areas where no business currently wants to operate.

Most importantly, it's not ALL grocery stores like the fear mongers like to pretend. It would be something like 4 stores in the entire city.

Yeah, that's a good case for this.
