The new management system of the Green Fund Akita is a model that aims to overcome the problems of cooperative organizations. It is made up of four cooperative organizations and an NPO, Hokkaido Green Fund and two companies. It has three characteristics. First, the Green Fund Akita manages and operates the supply chain of products and services themselves. Second, It has its own funding and profit sharing systems, goods and services that meet regional needs are supplied and the profits are reinvested in the region. Third, it shares the philosophy and methodology of the international cooperative union movement and carries out projects in accordance with local circumstances. As a result, it nurtures members, producers and consumers to be responsible for the formation of local communities.
