Greencity Wholefoods

Industry Food

A worker cooperative wholesaler supplying vegetarian and wholefood retailers, with democratic control, sourcing focus, and cooperative distribution scale. Greencity Wholefoods scores well because ownership is comparatively aligned and governance has stronger accountability than peers, though toxic or materially harmful products still limit the evaluation.

Why this matters: Regional wholesale co-ops test durable worker control in supply chains.

Penalties

Penalty Applied Why this penalty
Toxic Products
?
Current sale of products whose ordinary use, exposure, ingredients, residues, packaging, or formulation creates toxic, addictive, or consumer-safety risk. Food products receive at least light scrutiny for artificial colors, artificial flavors, petro-derived additives, pesticide residues, contaminants, endocrine-disrupting packaging, and ultra-processed formulation. Ordinary adult nightlife or alcohol service is not penalized by itself without evidence of predatory marketing, youth targeting, addiction-extractive design, or unusual product-safety misconduct. Range: -5 to 0.
