We are EROSKI
It is not easy to define ourselves, because everything we do at EROSKI reflects who we are.
We are the first cooperative distribution group in Spain, with a unique model that combines worker-members and consumer-members with equal rights and responsibilities. As a consumer cooperative, we are committed to making a positive impact and contributing to the well-being of all the people and communities we interact with.
We also integrate sustainability and innovation into everything we do, seeking to deliver responsible consumer solutions and continually improve the experience of our customers, while taking care of the environment and fostering fairer and more balanced development.
We encourage savings through fresh and local products, because for us health is a fundamental pillar and we want each person to have access to a quality, sustainable food that is within the reach of their daily lives.
Thus, every action and decision we take reaffirms our identity and brings us closer to what EROSKI really stands for.
