Tasmanian co-operators and supporters have formed a network to advance co-operative development in Tasmania.
Business Council of Co-operatives and Mutuals (BCCM) CEO Melina Morrison said that it was exciting to see local co-operatives wanting to organise to develop the sector.
The decision to form a network came from a meeting of Tasmanian co-operatives held in Hobart in early February.
The network will be convened by Molly Kendall, a co-ordinator at Resource Work Co-operative.
