At the beginning of the 1960s, the winegrowers of the Penedès region didn’t have many options to sell the grape harvest, for them the best way of trading was through the cooperatives.
The target of Covides was the creation of a cooperative that would give way to the production and that would add value to the grape harvest through the elaboration and the trading of the wine.
The Cooperative’s formula not only allowed to give way to the production of grapes but made it’s members automatically responsible for its management.
In just one year, the Covides Cooperative became a social reality.
