Food purchasing & pricing policy

To put it simply “Good Food that Doesn’t Cost the Earth”

Things you should know:

  • All of our fresh fruit and veggies are either certified organic or chem free.
  • All of our fresh fruit and veggies are grown either locally (within 2ookm) or within Australia (except kiwi fruits from NZ).
  • We’re GM Free – non of our products are genetically modified or come from genetically modified organisms.
  • We prioritise goods that are local, Australian or fairtrade; certified organic or chem-free; eco-friendly; good quality and value for money.
  • We buy in bulk not just to minimise packaging, but to ensure the best price possible is passed on to Co-op members and shoppers.
  • We have different mark-ups for different goods (see table below) to ensure good quality food is affordable for everyone.

  • How the coop benefits me

      • It suits me to walk to the shop and buy ingredients for the day, its all in one place and I know everything here is super fresh.

      • If I’m looking for an unusual ingredient for cooking I just go to the co-op and voila, its there!

      • I do almost all my shopping at the Co-op, and I can get lots of nice organic food for me and for my family.  It’s a wonderful little community where you can find the answers to the most obscure questions, and get your shopping done at the same time.  What more could you ask for?
