- TTTodd3 days ago1.0This is not a COOP, it's a Central Coop. Don't go expecting your COOP membership card to work Do expect your total to be twice what it says on the shelf because almost everything is way more expensive without the membership card. Not a COOP Membership mind you, but a Coop Membership. What a stupid system.
- BBBob233May 28, 20265.0Just a good shop.
- DDdcorban.1May 26, 20261.0I (18) came here today around 5 half 5ish with my girlfriend (17) attempted to buy a red bull. The girl on the tills asked for ID, which I showed. She saw I was 18 and still refused to give it to me. Her reasoning being my girlfriend didnt have ID to show as she left it at home which was irrelevant because the drink was for me. I then asked what the problem was after she left us standing there not saying anything while we asked for her to at least remove it so we could pay and leave. She was just quite miserable looking from the get go,miserable face, voice and persona. She was rude and when talking about my girlfriend didnt direct it towards her in conversation but insfead me which felt passive aggressive. I come here all the time and never had a problem until now. As someone who works in a pub and also IDs alot of people, I think she was very unprofessional and could have dealt with the situation alot better and with perhaps a bit more life. She's completely clueless ans should do better... we left feeling embarrassed by the situation.
- LRLouise La RondeApr 5, 20264.0I wish this store would post their actual opening hours online. Google often has the wrong detail and for example today it’s saying it’s open - it’s Easter Sunday. It’s frustrating around major holidays and bank holidays. Other than that I love this store for its variety and something “different”.

Frequently Asked Questions About Central Co-op Food - Sawbridgeworth
Where can I use my Central Co-op membership card?
You can use your Central Co-op card in any of our family of Central Co-op businesses and the easiest way to do this is to check our store locator to find our Central Co-op businesses.
How do I know what type of Co-op Membership card I have?
There are many Co-operatives within the UK and each one operates independently of one another. We all share Co-operative values and the ‘Co-op’ branded products available in our stores, but we are separate businesses.
If you are a Central Co-op Member, you’ll see the name ‘Central England Co-operative’ printed on the front of your Membership card, beneath your name.
How do I know if my nearest store is a Central Co-op store?
To find your nearest Central Co-op store, if you use our store finder, we’ll only present you with Central Co-op stores in the search results, so if you see a store listed, you can be sure it’s a Central Co-op store you’ll be visiting.
What is Share of the Profits?
If you’re a Central Co-op Member, you’ll already have a £1 share in the business or you may be earning points which will be converted into your £1 share. Once you own the £1 share, you are a full Member and this means you can have a say in how we’re run and you are eligible to earn a Share of our Profits.
A Share of the Profits is paid out twice a year to Members, usually in June and December, where points earned in that distribution period are converted into dividend.
Any points earned after the first 100 will be converted into pounds when we announce our Share of the Profits.
You’ll receive a Share of the Profits statement twice a year, where you’ll see a summary of what you’ve spent, over a period of time, converted into a balance onto your card. This is sometimes called an e-dividend.
You can spend your e-dividend in any of our family of businesses.
What is a distribution period for Share of the Profits?
A distribution period is a window of time/fixed amount of time in which to earn points when shopping with us and then be rewarded for those points. The June Share of the profits is for points earned from Aug to Jan (Paid out in June) and the Nov Share of the profits is for points earned from Jan to Aug (Paid out in Nov)
How do I get my Share of the Profits?
If you are not yet a full Member and are earning points towards becoming a full Member, your first 100 points earned will buy your £1 share.
Only points earned once you own your £1 share will be paid out in dividend in multiples of £1. Any dividend lower than £1 will not be paid out immediately but instead carried forward to the next distribution period.
What happens to my points balance?
When we are preparing for the pay out, we record your points earned, and your points balance is then reset, ready to earn towards the next pay out.
Where can I spend my Share of the Profits e-dividend?
Your dividend will be automatically loaded on your Central Co-op Membership card twice a year and can only be spent in Central Co-op businesses. You can redeem your dividend as full or part payment towards your shop and you can also do this at self-check outs. Simply scan your Membership card.
How many points have I earned on my Central Co-op Membership card?
One of our great Member benefits is being able to earn points by making a purchase in any of our Central Co-op family of businesses.
I’ve shopped in another Co-operative, but don’t think I’ve earned any points. How can I check?
Any points that you’ve earned in other Co-op stores will appear in your Share of the Profits statement. If this is missing from your statement, you can contact our membership team on 0800 050 1601. Please note, these points can take up to 12 months to appear.
I forgot to scan my card when I last shopped. Can I still earn points?
Don’t worry – You can still claim your points within three months from the date of purchase. These points cannot be added online.
Take your receipt and show your Membership card at your local Central Co-op store and they will be able to add the points on for you. Alternatively, email it to members@centralengland.coop with your Membership number. Only qualifying products will earn points.
How long does it take for my temporary card points to show on my account?
If you have recently joined Central Co-op Membership and you added your temporary card details, it can take up to 8 weeks for the points you had earned on your temporary card to transfer to your new Membership account.
Can I order a new key fob?
Key fobs can only be supplied with new cards so if we issue a new key fob, it will mean issuing a new card. If we issue a new card, this would cancel your existing card. With the launch of our new app, now available to download, you get a digital Membership card or if you choose, you can add this to your apple or google wallet so you will always have your Membership card close by.
Can I have Co-op Membership cards for more than one Co-operative society?
It is beneficial for customers to have a Membership card for which ever Co-op you shop at, especially the Co-op you use most frequently. You can have a card for multiple Co-operatives if you choose to. The points you earn on your Central Co-op Membership card are converted to a dividend when we share our profits twice each year, but this dividend can only be used in Central Co-op businesses only.
They cannot be used in Midcounties Co-op, The Co-operative Group or any other Co-operative that is not Central Co-op. You cannot transfer points between different Co-operative Membership societies. Each Co-op operates independently.
