Largest market chain where i live is run like this.
A consumer cooperative (or customer-owned cooperative).
Its a business owned directly by its customers, who usually become members by paying a small membership fee. Profits are returned to members as bonuses, discounts, or dividends, and major decisions are made democratically, but there is the normal corporate hierarcy running the day to day operations.
