Helping communities come together to buy good food.

City University Food Co-op

City Food Co-op team is run by Francesca and Marta who are postgraduate foodies from Italy, studying Food Policy, which looks at how food is prepared and consumed, and the consequences for our health and the planet.

Brighton University Food Co-op

Although Brighton University Food Co-op has been running for a few years, in 2016 it got a new lease of life and is now running regularly across three campuses.

Exeter VegShare

Motivated by a wish to learn more about how their local food system works and what steps they could take to make it more sustainable, students at the University of Exeter set up a veg bag scheme.

SOAS Food Co-op

The SOAS (School of Oriental and African Studies) food co-op in central London has a pretty simple aim - to distribute high quality delicious wholefoods to students and the local community at cost price.

Case studies from 2012

All of the following case studies were written a while back but we think they are still worth looking at so have kept them available for you.
