ABOUT US
SoLA Food Co-op is forming a viable cooperatively organized business. Our goal is to create a source for natural, organic, non-GMO food in South Los Angeles.
As a co-op, we are much more than just another natural foods store—we’re actually owned by our local community. Unlike the national chain stores, we exist to serve you, our owners—not a distant corporate board.
Because we’re truly local, owning a piece of your co-op is really about owning a piece of your community.
We are currently in Stage 2(a)
We are very close to Stage 2(b) our funding raising campaign. If you have interest in contributing or have experience raising funds please reach out!

Practice sustainability, fair trade, fair labor, and support local agriculture.
