Message Subject WinCo: worker-owned grocery chain that pays benefits, pensions, living wages -- and has lower prices than WalMart
Poster Handle Anonymous Coward
Post Content
WinCo is a midwestern chain of worker-owned stores that consistently underprice WalMart, while still paying a living wage to their staff and decent prices to their suppliers. Their secret appears to be a smaller selection of goods, sourced directly from factories -- but surely the fact that they're not extracting billions in profits for a family of rapacious plutocrats also helps keep prices low.

This is a winning business model. Workers are owners and are excited to go to work.

Yes, that is so true. It is the way forward, and Big Business will suffer in the long run. The going direct to the supplier is a win win for them, and the supplier. This business Model, if followed by other new business, would turn any country around.
