In a world of automation and globalisation, co-op model offers answers and re-balances innovation coming from people who their community needs – a bottom up approach.

In the UK, there are a number of independent large retail co-operatives, each with their own members but each sharing in the wider objectives of a co-op movement. They operate a variety of business and Mid Counties Co-operative has a childcare and energy wing.
