Capital Campaign

What Is The Capital Campaign?

The Capital Campaign gives all co-op owners the opportunity to invest in our community-owned grocery store and in our shared values through interest-paying loans.

Who Can Participate?

All co-op owners who reside in Massachusetts and are 18 years of age or older can invest.

What Will Our Investments Do?

Our owner loans will fund our store and our mission. And unlike Wall Street investments, our investments will make an immediate and meaningful impact right here in our community: supporting hardworking local farmers, increasing healthy food access for all, regardless of income, reducing our food’s carbon footprint, and revitalizing our local economy.

Your Investment’s Impact

Our Co-op, Our Community

Why invest in your Co-op? Owner loans reduce our traditional debt risk and ensure that interest payments go back to you, our community, instead of to some far-off corporation. It’s all part of our mission to build a thriving local community, economy, and cooperative.

In the end, it’s about our community, our families’ food, and our values. What could be more important?

How Do I Learn More?

Co-op owners can request their prospectus by emailing campaign@assabetmarket.coop today. Still not a co-op owner? Become an owner now by heading here!

Investing in the Co-op will make a meaningful impact on so many things we care about: local farms, the environment, equal access to food, and of course, our community. We’re proud to be part of the Capital Campaign to open our Co-op!
