Rural Grocery Succession Planning


Webinar 6: Consumer Cooperatives
Recorded August 18, 2022


In this webinar, we will dig into consumer cooperative grocery stores. What are the characteristics of this ownership model, and how do communities decide if it's the right fit? We will be joined by members of University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension to discuss these questions and more. In addition, we will hear how a rural community in Nebraska came together to open a cooperatively-owned grocery store.
