BIPOC Shopping Guide

Prioritizing spending money on BIPOC-owned products is a direct way to show solidarity and uplift communities of color. We’ve compiled a list of local Black-owned restaurants and farms, as well as Black and POC-owned brands that we carry at the co-op. Companies that have made donations in support of Black Lives Matter are also listed.

We will continue to update the list (and apologize in advance for any accidental omissions). If you have any other companies or organizations that should be added, please share them with us at marketing@alberta.coop.

We certainly don’t have enough products from vendors of color and we hope to change that. If you’re a BIPOC-owned business looking to get on our shelves, fill out a vendor application!
