Rainbow Grocery – San Francisco

Rainbow Grocery is a vegetarian food store that has been serving San Francisco and the Bay Area since 1975. While they strive to offer the widest selection of organic and locally sourced products at the most affordable price, they also hope to be a resource for our community to exchange information about the health and sustainability of the foods we put on our tables. As a worker-owned cooperative, those who work there are more than simply the labor-force of this business, they are the business. And while they have come to work there for many different reasons, they all share the common desire to work in a non-hierarchical, democratic workplace where everyone’s opinion matters. Not only do they hope to make a difference by providing healthy food and products to everyone who shops with them, they believe that through their successful business model for cooperative work they are also putting the ideals of sustainable living into practice. Since they moved from 15th and Mission to their building at 13th and Folsom, they have more than doubled their workforce from about 85 people to over 220.
