Panhandle Coop was formed in 1942 with 60 members. Today the cooperative has over 20,000 members and over 400 employees. It is a very diversified company, providing products and services in petroleum, crop production, and retail which consists of convenience stores, dispensing stations, car and truck service, ag chemicals and fertilizer plants, crop consulting, and grocery stores.

 

 

 

The cooperative is owned by the people who use it and it is governed by a Board of Directors elected by the stockholders.  Patrons may participate in annual patronage dividends based upon their purchases during the year and the Cooperative’s profit.
