The Channel Islands Co-operative Society

Mission: To be a successful Co-operative business by serving our members as the outstanding retailer in the Channel Islands Description: Our successful commercial enterprise began trading in Jersey in 1919 and in Guernsey in 1947; a merger of both societies in 1955 formed the Channel Islands Co-operative Society Limited. The Society is one of the largest businesses in the Islands, currently employing over 1000 staff members and with a record number of over 110,000 shareholders. The Co-operative Society is unique in modern business in having shareholders. Co-operative principles allow customers to become shareholders and take their share of the surplus (profit) in dividend related to their purchases in the financial year. This gives a total customer ethos to the Society, and leads to a special relationship between the directors, management, staff and shareholder/customer.
