There are Many Benefits of Becoming a Co-op Owner
Our business is a cooperative, which means it’s owned by our shoppers — folks like you who care about where their food comes from and how it’s grown.
For a one-time $100 investment, paid all at once or in $20 monthly installments, you can enjoy the benefits of lifelong Whole Foods Co-op ownership. Your investment helps the co-op grow!
