http://www.seikatsuclub.coop/english/top.html

I came across this coop of coops on the net, Seikatsu Club Consumers
Co-operative Union, and thought you all might find this one of interest. It
started in 1965 in Japan. They have 250,000 mostly women members, offer 2,000
items, and do lots of good things for the environment, social issues, etc.
It's an interesting blend of a consumer and producer coop. us$610 billion in
annual sales, and a socially conscious investment pool of us$170 billion. Yes,
you read right, those are billions. These women got scope!
