The Cooperative Union of Cavite (CUC) is a secondary cooperative. It was founded in 1979 but it was dormant through the years until 8 March 1988 when the late BCOD Officer Mr. Antonio Ermeno called for a meeting of cooperative leaders in Bacoor and egged Dr. Oscar J. Tayko to infuse energy and inspiration to get the Cooperative Union of Cavite on the go. Since then, the CUC with its original 10-member coops started to actively conduct and promote activities for education, training and advocacy for cooperatives.
