An Accessible Ownership Payment Program at Outpost Natural Foods

At Outpost, it’s both our mission and our passion to create healthy, diverse, and sustainable communities. We also understand that there are situations in life where money can be tight and access to good food options may be a bit out of reach. Because we are dedicated to providing local, sustainable and healthy foods for our community, we believe good food should be within everyone’s reach. Our ownership accessibility program, In Reach, gives more people the ability to join and enjoy the benefits of co-op ownership by offering a reduced payment plan for co-op shares.

With your down payment of $5 you will receive the following benefits of ownership:

• Owner-only sales on fresh and local items
• Loyalty points for your purchases…When points add up, owners receive great rewards
• 10% discount on preordered bulk or case items

Just five total payments of $5 each are all it takes to become an active owner with full voting rights.* No interest will be charged on these ownership payments.

In order to make Outpost ownership affordable for more members of our community, Outpost has extended the eligibility criteria to participate in the In Reach program.

If you are a recipient of Supplemental Security Income (SSI) or are an enrolled student at a college, university or technical college, you are now eligible to enroll in our ownership accessibility program.
