Because they are owned by people like you who shop and work there, food co-ops are rooted locally. And by working together, the Neighboring Food Co-op Association (NFCA) is building food security, providing purpose-led jobs, and strengthening the local economy. For example, on average, 30% of sales at our co-ops are from local suppliers, compared to just 2-5% in supermarkets.
