Timothy writes: I was delighted to see an excellent piece on the
bbc news website today about the
Co-operative Lijjat Papad in India.
It is celebrating its 50
th anniversary today and is a typical example of a successful Co-operative.
Founded by women, it exploited a small amount of start up money and is now a flourishing business with a turnover of £72million a year.

The women exploited a key skill and took this to an impressive business, delivering stable finances for their families at the same time.
It makes you proud to be a supporter of Co-operatives.
