The Co-operative - Primary Sponsor

The Co-operative Group is one of the largest consumer co-operatives in the world. We’re owned by our 4 million members, who share in our profits and help shape our business.

• We were the first supermarket to stock Fairtrade goods, and today have the UK’s widest range of Fairtrade products.


• We source nearly all of our electricity from renewable sources


• Over 1000 schoolchildren have visited our Oadby Lodge Farm to learn about where food comes from through our ‘Farm to Fork’ workshops.


• We’re committed to animal welfare.


• The Co-operative Bank’s ethical investment policy means we won’t invest in companies that fail to uphold human rights or damage the environment.

In February 2008, we introduced a wide-ranging ethical food policy that was decided on by over 100 000 of our members.
