City Market, Onion River Co-op
City Market, Onion River Co-op, is a community-owned food cooperative with two locations in beautiful Burlington, Vermont. We offer a large selection of local, organic and conventional foods, and thousands of Vermont-made products. Our Downtown and South End stores are open daily. City Market provides a critical service to the residents of Burlington and the larger community by providing local, organic, and conventional foods, as well as thousands of Vermont products, at a fair price to all. We also offer a hot and cold food bar, grab and go meals, coffee and tea, a made-to-order sandwich bar, and a deli. The Co-op is also dedicated to supporting the local economy and enhancing the sustainability of agriculture. We work with over 1,000 Vermont vendors to feature the widest selection of local products in the state. 73% of the vendors we do business with are located in Vermont and over 60 cents of every dollar in sales stays here in Vermont. We are Member-owned, so the profits generated by Co-op Members are returned to our Members (in profitable years) through our Patronage Refund program. Additionally, as a Co-op, we offer Members the opportunity to do Member Work in exchange for a discount. This Member Work is done with our non-profit community partners, providing them with much needed volunteer help.
