The Channel Islands Co Operative Society

When you’re part of something different, unique, meaningful…it gives you a real sense of purpose, pride and belonging. Believing in the value of belonging has shaped our Society since opening our first store locally in 1919. It’s why we put purpose before profit every day of the week. It remains at the heart of what we do, today and tomorrow. In our universe, Belonging means a number of things. Our Mission: To develop and protect long-term member value.
