Durham Co-op Market began through the efforts of folks in several neighborhoods near downtown Durham, NC who saw a need and were excited about the possibility of creating a grocery/market that focused on locally-produced food. Durham Co-op Market opened in February, 2015 at 1111 W. Chapel Hill St. The co-op is community owned, and community focused. Our goal is to return as much revenue as possible to our community by supporting local farms, selling locally made products, and supporting local jobs.

The Mission of Durham Co-op Market is:

  • To serve the Durham community.
  • To sell high quality food and other products with special emphasis on locally grown and produced goods.
  • To practice sustainability in our business by using resources wisely, and by promoting goods produced in a sustainable manner.
  • To foster a workplace based on respect, dignity, and fair compensation.
