A WORKER OWNED AND OPERATED CO-OP

The Hub is cooperatively owned and operated. Everyone working here is either a co-owner of the shop, or on track to become a co-owner if they want (membership is voluntary).

We started as a worker co-op in 2002 because we wanted to work in an democratic and egalitarian workplace. We enjoy working with co-workers as equals. We also maintain that a better business can be built by the contributions of a group of invested worker-owners. We feel we can provide better wages, a better work environment, and better service.
