Welcome to the Hastings Co-op, your Hastings Valley community cooperative. Hastings Co-op has been serving the Hastings area of NSW, Australia since 1916. Over the years we have grown with the Hastings and Greater Port Macquarie region and are now a diverse business conglomerate with the central purpose of providing a range of products and services that benefit members and improve our local community.

About Hastings Coop

The Hastings Co-operative Ltd is a community co-operative situated in Wauchope on the Mid North Coast of NSW, Australia. The Co-operative is owned by over 8900 shareholders. We are one of the longest serving independent co-ops in Australia. We were originally established in 1916 by a group of local dairy farmers who saw the benefits of working together as a community. They brought their milk to be processed and fresh fruit & vegetables to be marketed. Since then, we have grown from strength to strength, both in size and in the diversity of our product and service offering, while never losing sight of our community spirit.
