Our Mission

The Denver Cooperative Market is committed to building a healthy, vibrant and sustainable world by supporting local organically-grown vegetarian foods and products. The Denver Co-op is a gathering place dedicated to fostering community growth and cohesiveness, providing a space for expression, expansion, and personal and spiritual development. These goals commit us to providing the community with high-quality socially and environmentally-responsible products.

  • We are a group of individuals committed to making this dream a reality.
  • We are planning to open a retail grocery store that will offer foods and other products that are produced in a socially ethical, environmentally friendly and primarily organic manner. We also want to include a cafè and community event / meeting space.
  • We are planning to purchase or lease a space, somewhere in/near central Denver, that has easy access and parking.
  • We will lease a space, procure equipment, and stock the goods as soon as we have enough interested members and financing. Membership fees will help finance the startup of this store.
  • Anyone will be able to shop at this store, although members will be granted special privileges including exclusive discounts on certain items in the store, and a vote in the elections for the board of directors. This elected board will uphold and direct the ethics of the store, as well as hire and oversee the General Manager.
