Since 1970, Whole Foods Co-op (WFC) has proudly served Duluth, Superior, and the surrounding communities. Today, our community-owned cooperative operates two stores with over 150 employees and more than 13,500 Owners.
At WFC, we strive to be a one-stop natural foods shopping destination, providing excellent customer service and a diverse range of fresh, high-quality, and fairly priced goods that promote health, wellness, and environmental sustainability.
We aim to make a meaningful impact on our community beyond our store walls by fostering partnerships and providing crucial support to local non-profits, food producers, farmers, and the community. We achieve this through various initiatives, including our GIVE! Programs, Access Discount, and much more.
