Talk:Retail cooperative

Redirect to Consumers' cooperative
A retail coop operates a retail business on behalf on consumers, not a wholesale one on behalf of retailers, so I changed the redirect to reduce confusion. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:01, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

For example, the Austrian co-op Konsum mentioned at the BAWAG article as a retail cooperative was actually a consumers' co-operative, not a retailers' cooperative. See http://countrystudies.us/austria/97.htm which claims 800,000 families were members. --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 15:07, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
