Co-Operative Registration

If you’d like to Register a Co-Operative (Co-Op) at the Ethiopian Cooperative Commission (ECC) and relevant departments in the quickest possible timeframe.

A Co-Operative, commonly referred to as a Co-Op, is a unique business structure that enables a collective of individuals to purchase products or services in bulk. Members buy from the Co-Op, ensuring consistent demand and supplying community needs. All profits, also known as surpluses, are equally distributed among the members. For instance, consider a Co-Op with 20 members that procures 10,000 liters of milk. This milk is then retailed in 1-liter containers to both members and the general public. After accounting for all expenses, if the Co-Op makes a profit of ETB 10,000, it translates to a gain of ETB 1000 for each member.
