Thus, we send offers and information only to prospective customers that are likely to be interested in buying from us. Co-op Member brands operate in numerous categories, including apparel, home and garden, mobility, collectables, food and wine, gadgets and gifts, entertainment, health and beauty, travel, charity and leisure.

Only individuals who have not objected to sharing their contact details with third parties, such as Abacus Alliance Members, can be contacted by the retailers who are part of the co-operative.
