As most of your listeners, we know you like real examples. It is a French ice -cream company which was bough by English investors a few years ago. They quickly divested themselves out of it and its workers. About 20 (or so) laid-off workers decided to Go Coop, rather than give-up. 2 or 3 years later, they are thriving. (The Coop was on the French news on TV5 a few days ago). Old company name: Pilpa (Carcassonne). New name : La belle Aude.
