The ATA helps Woman’s Farming Co-operative

The 4Koop Woman’s Farming Co-operative (4Koop) has been presented with a refrigerated food display unit by the Anglo Turkish Association.

Deniz Solyali, Chairman of 4Koop (the only all-female co-operative in Northern Cyprus), was full of praise for the ATA saying ‘we are a young co-operative and our woman farmers sell their produce from a shop in Lefke, but we only have a table to sell the fruit and vegetables we grow. With this refrigerated food display unit, we will now be able to start making and selling a bigger variety of items. We can’t thank the ATA enough for this wonderful gift. I’d been told the ATA help good causes, when l approached them for help l didn’t think for one minute that they would be so receptive to my co-operative’s request, but here we are today as the proud owners of a new refrigerated food display unit. Thank you ATA’.

4Koop is a co-operative of women farmers across the TRNC who through miss-fortune run their own farms producing all types of produce in accordance with certified organic principals.
