In this episode we met up with Vanessa and Radcliffe of The Cheese Board Collective, and we dive into the history of the Cheese Board Collective, how it functions as a worker-owned business, and the challenges and benefits of this model.
Highlights:
- The Long History: The Cheese Board Collective started in the 1960s as a cheese shop and became a worker-owned collective in 1971.
- From Renting to Ownership: They recently purchased the building they have been in for almost 60 years.
- United, They Stand: Worker-owners share the profits and have a say in how the business is run.
- From Pay to Benefits, everyone gets a slice: They discuss how they all get paid the same rate, and they also get health care benefits!
