Why List on Cooperatives.com

Cooperatives.com is being built as the authoritative reference directory for the cooperative movement globally. Our content strategy targets high-intent searches — people looking to join a food co-op in their city, find a credit union, locate worker cooperatives in their sector, or research cooperatives for academic or policy work.

A free listing gives your cooperative a permanent, searchable presence tied to sector and geographic landing pages. Unlike social media profiles, a directory listing does not disappear from feeds — it remains findable as long as search engines index the page.

The cooperative movement grows when cooperatives are visible. Visibility attracts prospective members, informed customers, and motivated volunteers. Being in the directory costs nothing and requires minimal maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the directory listing really free?

Yes. Basic listings — including your cooperative's name, type, location, website, description, and founding year — are and will remain free. We earn revenue through optional featured listings (enhanced placement and lead-capture features), not by charging for basic visibility.

How do I add my cooperative?

Email [email protected] with your cooperative's name, location, sector, website, and a brief description. We will add your listing within 5 business days and send you confirmation when it is live.

Can I update or correct my listing?

Yes. Email [email protected] with your listing name and the details you want updated. A self-service claim and edit workflow is on our roadmap for later in 2026.
