Coop Forum is a Swedish hypermarket (combined supermarket and department store) chain.[1] The brand is owned by Coop Butiker and Stormarknader AB, who also run most of the stores. Some stores are run by regional co-operative societies through an agreement with Coop.
The chain was created through the conversion of many B&W, Robin Hood, Prix and Obs! stores into the Coop Forum format in addition to new openings.
The largest Coop Forum stores carry a full hypermarket range including groceries, clothes, homewares and electrical goods. The smaller stores are more compact selling only a full range of groceries and a selection of homewares. Many[quantify] Coop Forum stores also had a branch of Coop Bygg attached. Coop Bygg was a brand of small DIY store.
As part of a restructuring, almost all Coop Forum stores have been rebranded as Stora Coop. As of February 2023[update] only three stores remain under the Coop Forum brand.[2]
