Other similar ones existed in other parts of Glasgow, including Shettleston, Kinning Park, Cowlairs, Thornliebank and St George Cross and in the east end. This, in turn, led to the creation of the Scottish Wholesale Cooperative Society to supply goods to all these individual societies.

A ghost sign for the Tollcross Cooperative Scoiety on the side of a tenement building on Tollcross Road in Glasgow which was constructed for the society in 1891. Glasgow was a key player in the cooperative movement in Victorian Britain, but it was unusual in having a large number of small autonomous societies, such as the Tollcross one, rather than having a single large one.

Love this Glasgow style dome and finial combination on a corner tenement on Kelso Street on the western edge of Glasgow. Despite its location, the sculpted lettering just below the dome suggests it was built by the Clydebank Cooperative Society.

At its height, it's been estimated that one in every eight pounds spent in Glasgow went through the city's cooperative societies, meaning much of the wealth generated in Glasgow remained within the local economy rather than being drained away from it.

The Greencity Wholefoods Workers Cooperative building in the East End of Glasgow. While this particular cooperative was only established in 1978, the cooperative movement as a whole played an important role in the development of Glasgow, and especially in providing the city's workers with affordable goods and services.
