is a food retailer based in a large former warehouse in The Liberties area of Dublin, Ireland. It was founded in 1983 and is constituted as a consumer co-operative, with a focus on organic and wholefood products. The main trading day at the Co-op venue is Saturday, when the majority of sales are made by independent stallholders. Whilst similar to a farmers’ market in some respects, its operating model pre-dates the later popularity of farmers' markets in Ireland. It further differs from farmers’ markets by excluding ‘meat and meat products’, in keeping with its constitution. Opens on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and on Sundays (when the venue normally hosts independent market events)
