LISTING OF
COOPERATIVE
SOCIETIES OF BELIZE
A co-operative is an autonomous association of per-
sons united voluntarily to meet their common economic,
social, and cultural needs and aspirations through a
jointly-owned and democratically-controlled enterprise.
Co-operatives are enterprises that put people at the
center of their business rather than capital. Co-
operatives, as business enterprises can be defined in
terms of three basic interests: ownership, control, and
beneficiary. Only in the co-operative enterprise are all
three interests vested directly in the hands of the user.
Co-operatives put people at the heart of all their busi-
ness. They follow a broader set of values than those
associated purely with making a profit. Because co-
operatives are owned and democratically-controlled by
their members (individuals or groups and even capital
enterprises) the decisions taken by co-operatives bal-
ance the need for profitability with the needs of their
members and the wider interests of the community.
In Belize the cooperative movement started in the
1940s. Today there are cooperative societies engaged
in the various economic sectors. This publication is a
listing of cooperative societies and the sectors in which
they are engaged.
