Based in Chorlton, South Manchester, Unicorn offers an unbeatable range of affordable, fresh, and wholesome food with an emphasis on organic, fair-trade, and local produce. Our focus is on ingredients for tasty, interesting, and truly affordable cooking—produce that nourishes and isn’t laden with sugar, salt, and additives.
The food we choose to eat not only affects our health but, in many ways, shapes our world. From our unrivalled choice of organic fruit and veg to daily fresh bread, our ever-expanding deli range, organic alcohol, and store cupboard staples, we aim to cultivate stronger connections between our food, its producers, and all of us who eat it.
Paired with our values, our quality and competitive pricing have set us apart from the competition and made us one of the UK’s largest and most successful wholefood groceries—we’re now the size of a metro-format supermarket.
We are proud to have received recognition in various awards, including being named the nation’s ‘Best Food Retailer’ at the BBC’s Food & Farming Awards and topping Ethical Consumer’s national supermarket ranking.
As a ‘bricks and mortar’ store, we only trade in-shop, not online. As a workers’ co-operative, our shop is owned by those who work in it, and we have created the kind of place we want to shop in ourselves.
