TRUSTED BY THESE WELL KNOWN BRANDS AND HUNDREDS MORE.
Stirring names from the world of cooperatives - Owenite (after Robert Owen) and Rochdale (from the Pioneers) - were some of the street names adorning the Bostall Estate of 1900. Over a thousand homes were built in Abbey Wood by the Royal Arsenal Cooperative Society (RACS).
Founded in 1868, the RACS (taking its name from the Royal Arsenal in Woolwich) became a well known name in South London, its stores selling food and other goods - and branching out into funeral services, travel, insurance and.. housing.
At its peak, the society had half a million members, but financial problems led to a merger with the national Co-operative Wholesale Society in 1985.
Always one of the more political coops, the RACS paid a ‘bonus to labour’ - with the tradesmen building the Bostall Estate receiving a halfpenny an hour above the trade union rate.
