• Cooperative because they have a cooperative status, are non-profit, managed and governed by their members, for their members ;
• Participatory because the members are also the persons who work on a voluntary basis: i.e. they take shares in the social capital and provide a number of hours of work per month by the members ;
• Economic and solidarity short supply chains because they give access to quality products at affordable prices (fair price), primarily from sustainable and local agriculture. They promote exchanges, solidarity, sharing and awareness of current food issues.
