National Co-Op Grocers
Like many grocers, retail food co-ops around the US are facing unprecedented competition.
A Deep Dive into Grocery
This work included a quantitative survey of 2,000 participants and an ethnographic study in five cities across the United States.

Reinventing Co-Ops
Walden Hyde identified ways for food co-ops to grow based on their unique differentiators, even in a crowded climate. We presented results to the Board of Directors of their national association and to representatives from over 150 co-ops at NCG's national conference. As a result of this work, NCG is now reinventing the positioning and offers for food co-ops across the country.
