BDMPC History

BDMPC was formed through the consolidation of two other cooperatives: the Bohol Catholic Schools Multi-Purpose Cooperative, Inc. (BCSMPCI) and the Bohol Diocesan Consumers Cooperative, Inc. (BDCCI).

BDCCI was established in July 1982, initially with 45 members and a total paid-up capital of P14,700. It expanded its membership to include brothers, sisters, and members of mandated religious organizations.

BCSMPCI was organized in July 1986 by teaching and non-teaching personnel of the Bohol Association of Catholic Schools (BACS). Like BDCCI, it also expanded its membership base.

Both co-ops shared a common vision and ideals, leading to their consolidation.

The consolidation process began in 1992 and was finalized on September 3, 1993. BDMPC was officially registered on March 6, 1995, covering the Dioceses of Tagbilaran and Talibon. It operates as an open-type cooperative serving the entire province of Bohol.
