Become A Vendor

Thank you for your interest in becoming a part of the Co-opportunity product family!

We strive to carry the highest quality organic, specialty, local, and natural foods available and we welcome your submissions and inquiries. Please keep in mind that any proposed product must meet our co-op’s product quality standards in order to be considered.

PLEASE READ this list of ingredients that the Co-op does not allow in products we carry before you submit any products for consideration.

New Product Submission Process:

1. TELL US ABOUT YOUR PRODUCTS

Due to the high volume of product requests we receive, we are not able to personally respond to every submission.

You may submit your request to have your product considered by our purchasing team by filling out the form below.

2. PRODUCT REVIEW MEETING

If we are interested in a product or line your company has submitted, you will be contacted with information about scheduling a product review meeting with our purchasing team. Our purchasing team meets with new vendors on the first and third Thursday of every month.
