FoodCoop members stand for:

• fairness: fair prices for both producers and consumers
• transparency: transparent distribution channels and internal organisation
• ecological and social soundness: fair conditions of production and cultivation methods, fair pay and pricing, minimal packaging and food miles
• independent organisation and administration: close-knit communities, teamwork, and shared decision-making
• a closer bond between producers and consumers
• an alternative distribution network for regional farmers
