Why the Cooperative Model is a Great Fit For Real Estate

New Zealand is an economy made up of small and medium sized businesses, according to MBIE they contribute to 42% of our GDP. Across our towns, suburbs and rural communities, independent business owners put their capital, reputation and energy into building businesses of their own. Many of these businesses are part of co-operative groups that give the owners the independence of running their business as they see fit, but still enjoying the benefit and support of being part of a larger brand and group, without paying additional fees to a franchisor that has it's own strategic goals and profit targets. The cooperative business model brings together the entrepreneurial drive to own and operate a business with the benefits of operating within a wider group without paying excessive fees. Co-ops enable business owners to retain ownership of their businesses while collectively owning the organisation that supports them. They can pursue their individual ambitions, share resources and build something larger than any one member could create alone. It is a model that deserves more attention, particularly as New Zealand looks for ways to improve productivity, strengthen regional economies and help locally owned businesses compete. "For me, its relevance starts with a simple principle, the people who rely on a business should have a meaningful stake in its success and a voice in its future.", says Shaun Taylor, CEO of Professionals Group NZ.
