Fishermen's Co-operative

A Fishermen's Co-operative is a member-owned business formed by local fishermen to collectively market and sell their catch, negotiate better prices, and share resources like equipment and facilities. By working together, members can reduce costs, improve their bargaining power, and ensure fair income. Co-operatives also often provide training, financial support, and environmental management, fostering a sustainable fishing industry. Essentially, it’s a collaborative enterprise that empowers fishermen through shared ownership and mutual interests, enhancing their economic stability and community resilience.
