Over the course of 45 years CECOSESOLA has evolved into a self-governing association of cooperatives in Venezuela. Through the integration of over 50 organisations with more than 20,000 members and 1,200 employees a large network was developed, which is involved in agricultural production and distribution, education, the funeral and health system, payroll issues and various relief funds. Instead of static corporate structures and hierarchies, an innovative organisation was gradually developed, which is based on flexible meetings, rotating remits for members and a lot of individual commitment.
