About Community Natural Foods

Retail Groceries
51-200

Community Natural Foods was founded in 1977 by the Wilkes brothers. The brothers grew Community with the intention of providing Calgarians with natural and organic food at a great price. The business flourished as discerning customers could now find delicious alternatives to the artificial ingredients found in many foods sold at conventional supermarkets.

In November 2019, Community Natural Foods was acquired by Calgary Co-op. Garry Wilkes desired to see the business grow in order to continue to be competitive in today's diversified health food environment. He wasn't interested in working with just anyone, though. He wanted to make sure our loyal customers would continue to receive the quality customer experience they have become accustomed to, and he wanted to see the business remain a Calgary-based one.

The two organizations share similar values, including a focus on lessening our environmental footprint and increasing the accessibility of health and wellness options for Calgarians.
