Oneota Community Food Co-op reaches its goal to raise $600,000 in loans from its members

The Co-op remodeling is nearly 80 percent complete.  A grand re-opening is being scheduled during the first two weeks of June.

Since moving to its current location in 2008, the Co-op has seen annual sales increase by over $2 million.  In that same time period its number of member/owners (shareholders) has more than doubled to roughly 5,500.

In any given year the Co-op estimates that 45 percent of its annual sales stay within a 100 mile radius of the store. Currently this equals roughly $2.3 million annually, with half of that being funds paid directly to local producers who sell their products through the Co-op.
