Food Coop: Ein Supermarkt für alle!

FromTom Boothe

Year2016

Duration97min.

This inspiring documentary follows the Park Slope Food Coop: a cooperative supermarket where all members join for 3 hours a month to buy quality food in New York at low prices. Park Slope brings together more than 17,000 members and does about $60 million in sales annually.
The Park Slope success story for cooperative business is seen as an impetus and inspiration for similar supermarkets worldwide - including MILA Mitmach-Supermarkt in Vienna.


Afterwards, Lisa Mittendrein (Attac, expert on economic policy), David Jelinek (MILA Mitmach-Supermarkt) and the audience will discuss the questions: What difference do projects like Park Slope Food Coop & MILA make in our world? How is doing business & acting differently possible with cooperatives? Why are direct loans a truly sustainable investment?
