F.C. (Federation of Cooperatives)

The Federation of Cooperatives (F.C.) is an organization that unites various cooperatives—businesses owned and operated by their members—within a specific industry or community. Its goal is to strengthen these cooperatives through shared resources, support, and advocacy, helping them succeed and grow collectively. By working together, member cooperatives can improve purchasing power, access training, and influence policies that benefit their operations and members. Essentially, F.C. acts as a cooperative alliance, fostering collaboration and ensuring that member cooperatives thrive through mutual support and coordinated efforts.
