Our Co-op
WHO WE ARE
The Portland Food Co-op is a thriving, member-owned marketplace that strengthens the local food economy while building and nourishing community.
We bring local producers and consumers together in a member-owned marketplace to grow a healthier community and a more sustainable food system. We model cooperative values, operate with transparency, and foster trusting relationships with our customers, employees, and suppliers.
We are a grocery store with a mission, owned by thousands of community members and open to the public, that offers a wide selection of groceries, bulk foods, meat, dairy, frozen, beer & wine, health and beauty, and many other products. We prioritize local and organic but also carry a wide assortment of other items.
All are welcome at the Co-op; We would love for you to become a Member-Owner, but it is not required. We want everyone to come visit, shop, and experience what we are about.
As a cooperative business, we are owned and democratically controlled by the people in our community (like you). Profits that we make go towards caring for our staff the best that we are able, building our cooperatives infrastructure and equity, and further developing our local foods economy,
