Consumer cooperation´s business concept(adopted at the Jubilee Congress in June 1999)

Cooperation means members working together in an organised manner for the purpose of creating economic and other added value for everyone.

The aim of consumer cooperation is to enable members to contribute through their consumption towards a society which is characterised by economic development, ecological sustainability, mutual reliance and cooperation.
