To me, the Co-op seems to have different brands for different parts of the country. Where I am, it's known as the 'East of England Co-op' which was formerly the 'Ipswich & Norwich Co-op.' However, all items in store are 'Co-operative' yadda, and the adverts are for 'The Co-operative.' So, what is the Co-op known as where you are?

Also, my town has a 'Co-op Pharmacy,' 'Co-op Optician' and a 'Co-operative Bank.' The brand is even inconsistent in my town!

Here it is known as The Channel Islands Co-Operative Society. Costs £1 to be a member (which goes into your dividend account) to entitle you receive dividend. You get 4p dividend for every £1 you spend. Tuesday & Wednesday is Double Dividend meaning you a get 4p stamp for every £1 as well your regular dividend. Their forecourt shops just give the stamps out for every pound spent on fuel and shop goods

All stores in Scotland should become like this

Haven't we had this discussion before? Like, recently?

Coventry & East Mercia Co-Op which became the Heart of England Co-Op, and is now Co-Operative in the village I was bought up in...

But then again the village also had a Co-Op Homecare, Co-Op Pharmacy and Co-Op Department Store - all now rebranded as Co-Operative Home, Co-Operative Pharmacy and Co-Operative respectively.

I remember in Plymouth they used to have Plymco but think that's just Co-Operative Plymouth now.

We originally the Co-Op then they had a period during the 1990's when all the shops were rebranded Late Shop or Co-Op Late Shop. We used to have a big Co-Op in Warrington town centre, that became a Co-Op Gate House that became TJ Hughes. All the food stores have been rebranded into The Co-Operative Food up here, including a Somerfield one.
