THE Channel Islands Coop documented a 4.35% rise in turnover to £220.4 million in its latest annual results despite “ongoing challenges from external events” faced by the business in 2025.
In the 52 weeks ending 11 January 2026, the retailer also improved its trading profit by 6.94% to £7.2 million.
Members saw £10.5 million returned to them through savings, dividends and interest – equivalent to 4.66 p per £1 spent.
CI Coop chief executive Mark Cox noted that it had been “a challenging year for both islanders and retailers” and that “cost of living pressures remain a challenge across both the islands”.
But he also said that the business had stayed focused on “delivering real value” to its members.
“The society has taken deliberate action to support members through everyday pricing and targeted savings,” Mr Cox stated.
“We have strengthened our performance, invested in pricing, and ensured that more money goes back into members’ pockets every time they shop with us.”
The CI Coop’s annual results also cited the retailer’s community contributions, including £305,000 donated to charities and community groups and 1,455 hours of volunteering by 201 employees.
Additionally, nearly 125,000 items were redistributed via the food-sharing application Olio – equivalent to 89,869 meals.
Jon Bond, who chairs the CI Coop’s board of directors, said: “It is a testament to our team how they have managed the ongoing challenges from external events the business has faced in 2025.”
He added: “We continue to put our members’ interests at the heart of everything we do, delivering on our key objectives.”
The retailer also saw 5,119 new members join, with 22% under the age of 25. This took its total membership figure to 128,134.
