National Co-op Grocers

National Co+op Grocers (NCG) is a cooperative federation that supports independent, member-owned grocery stores across the United States. It provides resources like purchasing power, collaborative marketing, and industry expertise to help these stores succeed while prioritizing community, sustainability, and local products. As a cooperative, NCG emphasizes values like democratic control, environmental responsibility, and serving the interests of members and communities rather than maximizing profits. This structure allows member stores to offer healthier, ethically-sourced options and foster strong relationships with their local communities.
