Rumbalara Aboriginal Co-operative - The Heart of the Community

The Rumbalara Aboriginal Co-operative Ltd is a community-owned and controlled non-distributing (not-for-profit) enterprise located in Shepparton, Victoria. At time of writing Rumbalara had approximately 600 registered members, which represented about 30% of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population living in the Greater Shepparton region. With an annual turnover of around $20 million, Rumbalara employs approximately 200 people and provides an integrated service delivery model for its members. This makes Rumbalara one of the largest service providers to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community in Victoria, and one of the largest indigenous owned co-operatives in Australia. The co-operative is also a registered charity under the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC).
