Marissa Costello is the general manager of one of Australia’s longest-running co-operatives, the Killarney Co-op. Serving the residents of the Queensland town of Warwick and its surrounds, this co-op has been on an impressive journey over the last century.
Marissa Costello and Michael Cavanagh reflect on the first 100 years of the Killarney Co-op, from the early days as a butter factory, to its present setup with multiple retail outlets including a supermarket, an electrical appliances retailer, a hardware, a petrol station, a rural supplies store and a post office. They also talk about the generational legacy of the co-op, as well as how the co-operative movement is placed to offer community-based solutions in our ever-changing world.
