while there is no hard research yet to help answer the question, i posed it to corey rosen and loren rodgers of the nceo to see what they thought .
rodgers, who has worked in the grocery field during his career and is now executive director of the nceo, agrees with rosen .
he also points out that retail groceries have low but predictable margins. “that means that any small thing employee - owners can do repeatedly on operations, such as reduce shrinkage, moving produce quickly to shelves, or moving checkout lines quickly, can have a dramatic impact on profitability, ” says rodgers .
a second reason groceries may be fertile grounds for employee owners is that they tend to have more dense interpersonal relations than most industries: i. e. customers and employees interact a lot and converting people into regular customers matters a lot .
“both of those two things are hard to control by top - down management, ” says rodgers, “but they are great fits with employee ownership. ”
rodgers also says that the grocery industry may have just reached critical mass, “where people in the industry have come to expect it. ”
