At Market of Choice, we do our best to walk the talk. That means striving for sustainability by meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. From packaging and composting to biodegradable bags and solar power, we continuously work to achieve that goal.
It begins with the products we carry, the materials we recycle, and the choices we offer customers. It’s also about buying local. Buying local simply means purchasing food, or any product or service that is produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. We support local vendors, so that you can too.
But it doesn’t end there. Being sustainable also means investing in people, who in turn, invest in their community. We truly believe that paying our employees living wages and offering comprehensive benefits is an investment in our community. We can achieve even more, with your help. If you have an idea, contact us! We’ll consider them with care.

Show – don’t tell. That’s the best way to reach people, says John Tasker, Maintenance Supervisor. Instead of preaching about the benefits of recycling and composting, John tackles each project with enthusiasm and gusto. Working behind the scenes at our Willamette store, John’s efforts benefit both the environment and the bottom line. “We have to work smarter,” he says. “Being sustainable is an ongoing process.”
