COOPLOOM

The co-operative movement in Kerala has a long history and it started even before the formation of Kerala state. There were three administrative units in the erstwhile Kerala- viz, Travancore, Cochin and Malabar. In 1949, Travancore and Cochin merged into a single state known as Travancore- Cochin State. Kerala state was formed in 1956 by merging all the three units. (Source: Department of cooperation: https://cooperation.kerala.gov.in/2019/04/06/history/)
