Singapore National Co-operative Federation
 | |
The co-operative concept was introduced in Singapore as early as
1924 for wage earners who were struggling to make ends meet.
The Singapore National Co-operative Federation (SNCF) was
established in 1980 with the objectives of furthering the principles
and practice of cooperation; promote co-operative education; carry
out research, collect and disseminate information connected to, and
for the purpose of co-operative development; provide management,
accounting, audit, legal and other advisory services for affiliates; and
organise and represent the co-operative movement of Singapore. Todate,
the movement has more than 1.6 million individual members
from 79 co-operative societies, of which 71 are affiliated to SNCF.
