• Are employee owned businesses that are a stimulus for community-focused economics and entrepreneurship.
• Are owned and operated on a one employee/one vote basis.
• Apply democratic principles to the workplace.
• Provide a real world cooperative “classroom” for learning and using business skills that build cooperation, trust, community and competition.
• Give employee/owners (members) an opportunity to have a voice and positive impact in their workplace and on the market economy.
