The Cooperative Food Association

The Cooperative Food Association (CFA) is a collective organization that supports local cooperatives by pooling resources, expertise, and purchasing power. It helps member co-ops access quality food, share best practices, and strengthen their community-focused mission. By working together, co-ops can offer fresh, healthy options at competitive prices, promote sustainable practices, and advocate for local food systems. Essentially, CFA acts as a supportive network that empowers independent food cooperatives to thrive through collaboration, resource-sharing, and collective purchasing, fostering resilient and equitable local food economies.
