Co-op overview

Our company is owned and run by members of the community, which means the Monte Vista Cooperative is in business, first and foremost, to serve its members, with all of our profits going back into the community.

In 1949, a group of forward-thinking farmers formed the Monte Vista Cooperative Association (MVC) to pool resources in order to buy in bulk. This saved the farmers money, and in turn helped to balance the market and economy in the area. Today, the MVC has more than 7,000 members and not only offers farming and ranch necessities at its farm stores, but also provides petroleum services and stations, a full-service fertilizer department, grain marketing services, a tire sales and service department, and a full line of hay and potato equipment.

Agricultural co-ops are farmer-owned businesses making an impact on agriculture. These farmers are not only in charge of their individual farms, but also have a share in ownership and a say in the operations of a larger cooperative business. The co-op helps market products at scale and collectively buy the supplies and services needed to operate individual farms at a discount made available to the larger group. This cooperative way of doing business empowers farmers in their independent operations by offering scale and security in the competitive landscape of food production. Not only do the farmers own the co-op and help make decisions, but when the larger cooperative business is profitable, each farmer gets a share.
