Coop Marked is a chain of 100 (not including Matkroken) [1] local grocery stores throughout Norway managed by Coop Norge and owned by local cooperatives. The chain represents the smallest stores in the Coop range, and is predominantly used in rural areas too small to support Coop Prix stores.

Coop Marked was established as Samvirke Butikk (S-Butikk), Samvirke Marked (S-Marked), Samvirkelaget (S-Lag), Samvirke Nærkjøp (S-Nær) and Samvirkelaget Varehus (S-Varehus) in 1950. In 1990, the graphic profile was updated so that all stores were rebranded as S-Butikken, S-Marked, S-Nærkjøp and S-Varehus, which lasted until the rebranding in 2001 to Coop Marked.

A consumers' co-operative is an enterprise owned by consumers and managed democratically and that aims at fulfilling the needs and aspirations of its members. Such co-operatives operate within the market system, independently of the state, as a form of mutual aid, oriented toward service rather than pecuniary profit. Many cooperatives, however, do have a degree of profit orientation. Just like other corporations, some cooperatives issue dividends to owners based on a share of total net profit or earnings ; or based on a percentage of the total amount of purchases made by the owner. Regardless of whether they issue a dividend or not, most consumers’ cooperatives will offer owners discounts and preferential access to goods and services.
