A Word From Co-op
Co-Op championed a very different way of doing business when we started 175 years ago and our passion for supporting British communities, and the farmers who live and work at the heart of them, is just as strong today as it was in 1844.
A new decade is the perfect time to highlight and celebrate the hard graft, dedication and innovation which is the driving force behind the British agricultural industry, as it continues to set high standards which reach across the globe.
At Co-op, we are proud of the long-term relationships we have forged with farmers and growers up and down the British Isles, all of whom work so hard to produce world-class food, create jobs and support communities. This is against the backdrop of climate change pressure and a shifting political and economic landscape.
We know Co-op has a role to play too which is why we will continue to champion British sourcing, innovative agriculture and sustainable supply chains.
From us to you – thank you for being the Backbone of Britain.
