Consumer’s Cooperative

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.

Ang Gawad Pinoy Consumer's Cooperative

Ang Gawad Pinoy Consumer’s Cooperative is an organization devoted to empower Filipino
products through cooperativism.
We aim to create businesses which belong to the people who use them, providing valuable
services and save consumers money. Since the primary goal of cooperatives is to meet needs, not
generate profits, we can serve our members at low cost.
We often provide services to the communities that are not readily available from for-profit
businesses. In other cases, cooperatives enhance the level of competition in the marketplace by
providing consumers with an alternative source of products and services. Members control the
business and provide capital for a strong and efficient operation. And, members receive all net
savings left after money is set aside for operations and improvements. Consumer cooperatives
provide most important products.

Vision:

responsible cooperatives with purpose-driven marketing and equitable distribution systems for
