Coop is unique! It is easy to think that all grocery stores are the same. Same goods on the shelves, same shopping carts, and the checkout at the exit. But Coop is different because we are owned by our 3.5 million members. That is what makes us unique. It also gives us an extra large responsibility, but also extra large opportunities.

Coop is one of Sweden's largest employers and we are driven by the task of giving everyone access to good food. We are in an exciting journey of change to become the good force in food-Sweden. We should simplify everyday life and give everyone access to good raw materials – something that is good for both body, soul, and our environment.

Coop has long been at the forefront and realized the importance of ecological thinking. Our fish is certified, chickens are free-range, and our own brand Änglamark is named Sweden's Greenest Brand – but our journey does not end there.

Together with our employees, we work every day together with our customers to continue to be the best in sustainable development and now we are investing even more in spreading food joy and more love for good raw materials.

Together we can and must become the good force in food-Sweden!

Coop values qualities such as a balanced age and gender distribution as well as ethnic and cultural diversity adding to the business.
