The cooperative sector outside of the credit union movement is expanding.

This was revealed by the Registrar of Cooperatives and Friendly Societies, Bryan Gittens, who says an increasing number of individuals are opting to form these types of organisations in a wider range of fields.

He was speaking on the sidelines of a church service to commemorate the International Day of Cooperatives at the James Street Methodist Church today.
