Let’s Open a Weavers Way Co-op in Germantown!
Weavers Way Co-op will be opening a new location in Germantown at 328 W. Chelten Ave. This store will serve a rapidly growing membership and provide local and nutritious foods to the neighborhood. The building — once an Acme Market — requires substantial rehabilitation. The plan is to open in late summer or early fall 2023.

Similar to its other expansions, the Co-op is offering the opportunity for members to invest in the Co-op and support this exciting endeavor. By clicking "Make a Loan," you'll be taken to the Co-op's Member Center - look for the box "My Lending."
By investing in the Co-op, your dollars stay in the local economy, which helps provide jobs, and strengthens our local food system, including our regional farmers and local BIPOC-owned vendors. Together, we can make Weavers Way Germantown a reality.
We will be offering three options on loans, through December 31, 2022, with a minimum of $1,000 (no maximum):
- 2.5% interest (per annum) for 4 years, or
- 4% interest (per annum) for 6 years,
- 5% interest (per annum) for 8 years.
Simple (not compounded) interest to be paid at the end of the loan period. Lenders must be Weavers Way members and Pennsylvania residents.
