Consumer cooperative - Arndtstrasse, Vienna, Austria

The exterior of the Consumer cooperative (KGW) - Arndtstrasse, Vienna, Austria - the largest and most powerful consumer cooperative in Austria for decades. A Consumer cooperative is an enterprise owned by consumers and managed democratically which aims at fulfilling the needs and aspirations of their members. They operate within the market system, independently of the state, as a form of mutual aid, oriented toward service rather than pecuniary profit. Consumers cooperatives often take the form of retail outlets owned and operated by their consumers, such as food co-ops. However, there are many types of consumers cooperatives, operating in areas such as health care, insurance, housing, utilities and personal finance (including credit unions). Date: circa 1930s
