PCC Community Markets

PCC Community Markets

PCC Community Markets is the nation's largest member-owned cooperative grocer. Operated with a focus on the triple bottom line for decades, PCC has grown to more than $300M in revenue, 82,000 members and stores in seven cities in the Pacific Northwest.

PCC began as a food-buying club of 15 Seattle families in 1953. Since then, our priorities haven’t changed. We build our stores to LBC Petal Certification standards, have the most stringent ingredient standards in grocery, advocate for organic and regenerative agriculture and invest in equitable food systems. Our passion is for great food and cooking, from our fresher-than-fresh local produce to our in-store kitchens where original recipes are made from scratch daily using fresh, seasonal ingredients. Because when you love a community, you feed it well.

PCC Community Markets is tagged in 10 assets.
