I understand the process of establishing the food co-op, but how did they get the food??
- qrush 4y agoMost co-ops pair with local distributors and national ones (the most prominent being National Co-op Grocers - https://ncg.coop https://ncg.coop) to actually get the food, but tons of steps to do before we are ready for this!
- the-printer 4y agoWow. So this is a process. I can understand that when the goal is likely sustainability, scale and longevity. Thank you for sharing this with us.
- kjbreil 4y agoJust to clarify NCG is not a distributor but an overarching organization which helps Grocery Co-ops nationwide to run their business. A generally used distributer would be UNFI along with using local distributers.
