We exist to make your cooperative unstoppable.
Founded in 2017, we believe cooperatives grounded in their cooperative identity are more resilient, more competitive and better for their members.
The world's most connected cooperative marketplace.
The Coop360° Network is building the world's most connected cooperative marketplace, linking cooperatives, businesses and individuals across borders. Founded in Uganda by the Uhuru Institute for Social Development, we kept seeing the same problem, cooperatives full of potential but lacking the right systems, support and skills, so in 2017, we did something about it.
The network has impacted 102 cooperatives, supporting over 350,000 individual member livelihoods and households, including over 182,000 youth and 178,000 women.
An agile cooperative business services hub, marketplace and community unmatched in value and impact.
To accelerate holistic growth in cooperatives and partner organisations for today and tomorrow.
Six principles guiding every engagement.
Quality Services
We deliver what we commit to, at the standard we promise, and measure our success by the results our members achieve.
Honesty
We share results even when they're uncomfortable, because a cooperative that knows its gaps can fix them.
Accountability
Every member and partner is answerable for what they bring, and for the commitments they make to the network.
Equitable Contribution
Every member contributes according to their ability and receives value in a fair and transparent way.
Innovation
We adapt, experiment, and keep finding better ways to serve cooperatives in a changing world.
Mutual Solidarity
One cooperative's success strengthens the entire network, so we actively support and learn from one another.
Three pillars. One purpose.
Interconnectivity, competitiveness and identity, the framework behind everything we do.
Interconnectivity
You can't grow alone. The Coop360 Network gives you the physical and digital spaces to connect, share, learn and hold one another accountable, locally and internationally. Events, conferences and markets you cannot afford to miss.
Competitiveness
Every cooperative faces a choice: grow or stagnate. We make sure you grow. Through integrated business solutions, continuous learning and a shared model, we walk every step of your growth journey with you.
Identity
At the heart of everything is who you are as a cooperative. We help you live that identity, guiding you in self-help, democratic governance, member value and community care. Not just in theory. In practice.
If growth is on your agenda, you belong here.
The Coop360° Network is for registered cooperatives, businesses that work with cooperatives, and individual professionals who are serious about the cooperative movement.
