Co-operative Development Scotland was set up in 2006 to increase the contribution of co-operative enterprise to the Scottish economy.
We are a subsidiary of Scottish Enterprise and have a Scotland-wide remit to ‘promote and facilitate the development of co-operative enterprises’.
If you are:
- looking to start a business;
- interested in transferring ownership of your business to your employees; or
- an established co-owned business,
CDS can offer support.
Co-operative models are relevant to all sectors but have particular growth potential in Scotland's food and drink, tourism, forestry, renewable energy and creative industries.
To find out about co-operatives and the benefits of co-operation, contact us or call 0141 951 3055.
