Governance
Our Cooperative Governance
ACOME is the largest cooperative and participatory company (French: SCOP) in France.
Cooperative governance safeguards our long-term strategy to guarantee the company’s sustainability. At our foundation lies a model of corporate democracy, in which each employee-partner can exercise his or her right to vote at general meetings (1 person = 1 vote).
This cooperative status is the foundation of ACOME’s identity, and the company ensures that its values are upheld in its subsidiaries.
