Voluntary & Open Membership

 Co-operatives are voluntary organisations, open to persons willing to accept responsibilities of membership. This relationship can be voluntarily ended at any time.

Democratic Member Control

Co-operatives are democratic organisations controlled by their members who actively participate in setting their policies and making decisions. Members have equal voting rights (one member, one vote).

Member Economic Participations

Members contribute equitably to and democratically control the capital of their Co-operative. At least part of that capital is usually the common property of the Co-operative.

Autonomy & Independence

Co-operatives are autonomous, self-help organisations controlled by their members.

Education, Training & Information

Co-operatives provide education and training for their members, elected representatives, managers and employees so they can contribute effectively to the development of their co-operatives.

Co-operation among co-operatives

Co-operatives serve their members most effectively by working together through local, national, regional and international structures.

Concern for Community

While focusing on members' needs, Co-operatives work for the sustainable development of their communities through policies accepted by their membership.

Proud Past and A Strong Future

Sometimes it feels that change is the only constant. Not content to live in the past, your Co-op has a clear picture on where the business is headed.

Rationalisation and mergers are seeing the rise of larger competitors. Customer expectations are on the rise as well.

Steps like sourcing and manufacturing our own branded supplies will make us stronger against such trends. Technology too is another driver of change and we have taken steps to ensure information to members is:

• More relevant
• Delivered across a variety of platforms
• In a timely fashion

New, higher levels of Customer Service at all branches will benefit members, as will product training and expanded product lines.

Whatever the challenge, we will make sure we will anticipate it and meet it.

Over the past sixty years the growth and management of our Co-operative has been overseen by various Boards of Directors. The Board consists of four member Directors and two Independent Directors. The introduction of Independent Directors in recent years has had a positive influence on the success of the business as it has provided both management and Member Directors with a broad range of guidance and oversight from the wider corporate community.

In accordance with Co-operative law the Board of Plumbers Supplies Co-operative must consist of a majority of Member Directors, this is to ensure that the organisation maintains a strong member focus. The Board has four Member Directors, three from New South Wales and one from Victoria, who are elected on a rotational basis for three year terms.

The ongoing success of the Plumbers Supply Co-operative over the past sixty years is, no doubt, primarily due to the Co-operative structure under which we operate - we have good governance thanks to a proactive and knowledgeable board
