The Co-operative Group
PRIVATE:COOP
A co-operative (co-op) is a different kind of business. Our Co-op is owned by individual members and other co-ops, not big investors, and our members get a chance to have a say in how we're run. Profits mean members receive money, rewards and offers and a co-op can support its local community.
