Symbi is a not-for-profit Social Enterprise which leverages the buying power of its members to make purchases of health food products at wholesale prices.
We aim to affect positive change on our planet’s climate by making day-to-day living choices that are ecologically sustainable, whilst also saving money!
Once a month we collate all of our orders into one and use it to make a purchase of health food items at wholesale prices.
A small fee administration fee is added to the wholesale price and this money is used to finance the costs of running Symbi. For a detailed breakdown of how those monies have been used see our transparency page.
By combining our resources in this manner we are able to make substantial savings on our shopping.
There’s no minimum amount you have to spend and there’s no membership fee; you are a Symbi member as soon as you start making regular purchases.
Symbi is setup to be to the benefit of all those who partake; people and planet. No matter how big or small your purchase is, by acting together we’re able to support producers of our own choosing and negotiate cheaper prices.
Our group purchases are currently being delivered to one of our member’s houses in the North Strand (Dublin 3). There it is divided up into all the individual orders and made available for collection.
If you cannot get to North Strand to collect your order, we may be able to use our membership network to send your order to another member household who lives closer to you.
Below is a list of the areas where our members are living.
