A cooperative in the Philippines is registered with the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) under Republic Act 9520, the Philippine Cooperative Code of 2008. Registration is what gives a cooperative its legal personality — the CDA issues a certificate of registration, and the cooperative is then subject to the Code's rules on membership, governance and reporting.
The lists on this site are grouped by the CDA's own administrative regions rather than by city. That reflects how the register itself records them: a region is reliably present for these cooperatives, a city very often is not. Grouping by region is therefore the honest unit here, and it is also how most people search — by type of cooperative and by part of the country.
The lists above cover 20,731 cooperatives across the five most common types. A region appears only where we hold enough registry depth to publish a list worth reading; where we do not, there is no page rather than a near-empty one.

The Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) registers tens of thousands of cooperatives nationwide. This directory lists cooperatives drawn from the CDA register, grouped by type and by administrative region so you can find a specific kind of cooperative in a specific part of the country.
Consumer and multi-purpose cooperatives are the most numerous, followed by agricultural cooperatives and credit cooperatives (savings and credit cooperatives). Worker and marketing cooperatives are also represented across most regions.
Cooperatives are governed by Republic Act 9520, the Philippine Cooperative Code of 2008. They are registered and supervised by the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA), which issues the certificate of registration that gives a cooperative its legal personality.
Registration is confirmed by the CDA, which maintains the official register and issues each cooperative a certificate of registration. The names listed here are drawn from that register. For the current status of any single cooperative — including whether its registration remains in good standing — check directly with the CDA.
Listings are drawn from the CDA register. Registration status can change; confirm the current standing of any individual cooperative with the CDA directly.
