Start a Grocery Provisioning Business in Park City
Serve STR Guests, Property Managers, and Vacationers Without Building a Platform Yourself
Park City, Utah is a high-density STR market with seasonal volume, airport-driven arrivals, and guests who frequently arrive without groceries. Co-Op Shopper provides the software, catalogs, and workflows needed to offer local grocery provisioning and Costco stocking services under your own brand and domain.
Why Park City is Ready for Operators
Park City combines three unique demand drivers:
-
Airport-to-Ski Arrivals — guests land in Salt Lake and drive directly to units
-
Grocery Inconvenience — parking, timing, and unfamiliar stores
-
STR Turnover Density — high guest arrival concentration around weekends and holidays
Costco is ~40 minutes away, making provisioning and stocking a high-value service for both guests and property managers.
What Operators Do
Operators use the platform to:
-
Receive grocery lists from guests
-
Shop Costco or local grocers
-
Provision and stock STR units
-
Coordinate arrival-time handoffs
-
Bill clients directly for groceries + delivery
No commissions are taken by Co-Op Shopper. You operate your business independently.
What the Platform Provides
Co-Op Shopper handles the platform layer so you don’t have to build technology yourself:
✔ Costco grocery catalog (master)
✔ Generic grocery catalog (local)
✔ STR provisioning workflows
✔ average pricing + size options
✔ split multipack tools
✔ cost-sharing calculator
✔ scheduling alignment
✔ white-label branding (operator domain)
✔ optional website build via Wix
✔ no commission fees
✔ operator controls billing
This structure enables operators to serve both STR guests and year-round residents.
Early Operator Advantage
Operators who onboard during the initial Park City launch phase gain:
-
brand positioning in a high-value STR market
-
early PM referrals as demand stabilizes
-
higher margin before curation phase
-
first access to future Costco hub logistics

Who it's For
This opportunity is well-suited for:
-
STR cleaning companies
-
independent STR cleaners
-
gig workers
-
concierge services
-
small service businesses
-
entrepreneurial individuals
​These groups already have the timing + access required for STR provisioning.
How it Works
Co-Op Shopper operates on a subscription model. Operators:
-
pay a monthly platform subscription
-
bill clients directly for groceries + delivery
-
set their own delivery fees
-
keep 100% of their delivery revenue
-
manage their own business relationships
Co-Op Shopper does not insert itself into billing or commissions.
Other Ways to Operate Using the Co-Op Shopper Platform
Not all operators start in a single destination market.
Many service-based businesses — especially cleaning services — use the Co-Op Shopper platform to add grocery provisioning as an additional income stream in the markets they already serve. This applies to both short-term rentals and residential clients, regardless of location.
If you operate a cleaning business or another trusted service and want to add grocery delivery and stocking without building technology or joining a commission-based app, explore how service-based operators use the platform across different markets.
