Parecon Atlanta

February 4th, 2007

I’m working on a new project to document cooperatives (of all kinds) in Atlanta. Sadly, as far as I know there are very few coops in Atlanta.

The major ones that I am aware of:

Sevenanda Grocery

MadRatz Infoshop

SoPo Bike Cooperative

In addition to those there are a number of credit unions and preschool cooperatives. I know of no workers’ cooperatives in Atlanta where the workers are not also volunteers (like the last two on above list).

In next next couple of years I hope to be a part of such a workers’ cooperative in Atlanta. Researching existing cooperatives is perhaps a good first step.
