Company Shops Market

Company Shops Market began as a grassroots effort to create a centralized market offering the very best from our local farms and to support the revitalization of downtown Burlington. Four years of hard work on the part of thousands of volunteers, investors and the commitment of 2000+ owners have made this vision a reality. Today, Company Shops Market is a place this community can be proud of where you can find delicious, fresh, wholesome, local, organic, and sustainably-produced food. Their knowledgeable staff is ready to serve you!

About The Cafe/Deli

The Cafe/Deli is your community gathering place … a place where you might run into an old friend or meet a new one… a place to read the morning paper with a mug from their fair-trade coffee bar, to enjoy a freshly-baked croissant or pastry, to catch a wholesome lunch with friends, to unwind after work and leave the cooking to them. Everyday you’ll find fresh, wholesome options on their hot bar buffet and their always fresh salad bar. When you are on the run, look in their Grab n’ Go section for salads, fruit, salsas and dips, hummus, heat & serve entrees, and sushi.

About Ownership

Company Shops Market was created as a place for ALL of the community to shop, learn and enjoy. EVERYONE is welcome to fill a cart with wholesome, delicious food and take advantage of their bi-weekly co-op deals -- not just owners. If you love the store as much as they do, they invite you to join their community of owners. When you buy an ownership in Company Shops Market, you are buying a piece of the business. You have the privilege of electing their board of directors, and you can even run for the board yourself. When the co-op has a truly successful year they share those profits with their owners through their patronage dividend. Owners also save 10% on the 10th of the month. And the ownership is an investment in the economic health and vitality of the community. Stop by the Customer Service desk for a full list of the benefits of owning Company Shops.
