WinCo Foods is a unique grocery store experience that offers a self-service shopping environment. The store operates as an employee-owned company, with employees participating in the decision-making process through their stock ownership.

WinCo's business model focuses on bulk purchases and discounted prices for customers who shop in bulk. This approach is achieved by bypassing traditional advertising methods, such as television commercials and print ads, which helps keep costs low.

The store offers a wide selection of products, including meat, produce, dairy, bakery items, and household goods. WinCo Foods also provides services like deli counters, pharmacies (in select locations), and in-house bakeries at some stores.

WinCo's employees are often visible throughout the store, performing tasks such as price checking and maintaining shelves. This hands-on approach is meant to create a more direct shopping experience for customers.
