What Does it Mean to be an Owner?
No Annual Fees
The $100 you pay is not a membership fee, it is the cost of a share. You only pay once, and there are zero annual fees.
By purchasing a share and shopping at the Co-op, Shareholders invest capital that is used to operate the store on a daily basis.
A Co-op Owner Participates in the Decision Making
Our Board of Directors is comprised of Shareholders. During the the Co-op’s annual meetings, Shareholders have an opportunity to not only vote for the candidates they would like to represent them, but to also run for any open position available on the Board.
Shareholders vote on amendments made to the Bylaws proposed by the Board, and are invited to attend all BoD meetings.
Not Like Other Grocery Stores
When you become a new Shareholder of Abundance, you don’t “join” the Co-op, you become an Owner.
At Abundance Food Co-op, there is no approval process or interview – anyone can become a Shareholder of our grocery store!
As an Owner, you may request a refund of your share equity value by emailing board@abundance.coop. Note: the Abundance Food Co-op board has the right to withhold refunds when necessary to protect the Cooperative’s financial viability.
