Everyday necessities are also offered. Co-Op loves to be at the heart of the community and this store serves that purpose. This store is a great place to meet and chat with friends as well as buy your daily and weekly groceries. The local market has always been at the heart of the community in the UK and Co-Op is a great example of that. It’s spreading out and enriching community life in south Wales on a large scale. This store is just one of three new stores in the region.
What’s interesting about the Cardiff shop? It’s an experiment in eco-friendly existence. It runs electricity which is 100% renewable. This store will be at the heart of the local neighbourhood, providing an example of giving back. Back to the community and back to the earth. Meanwhile, Co-Op continues with its mission. It encourages locals to become co-owners of the store. This way, they raise money for local community charities every time they buy own-brand items. Swipe your membership card when buying own-brand products. Co-Op will donate, 1% of your purchase's worth to local needs on your behalf. Co-Op’s own-brand items are a great way to save some money as well as give back to the local community. Shoppers get a 5% reward for their swipes.
Co-Op is a great addition to any neighbourhood. With all the essentials you need every day, with space for locals to meet over coffee and catch up on the latest news. It should soon become a local community hub. It should inspire and lead the way towards awareness. So that locals will become aware of the importance of contributing to local community causes. They must also consider using the earth’s renewable resources rather than non-renewable ones. The Co-Op is one company that leads the way in this regard. At the same time, it always strives to give the best deal possible to the customer. Especially to the customer who’s a co-owner.
