COOPERATIVE HISTORY
The organization had its humble beginnings in 1982 when it was first conceptualized and organized by the then Department of Social Sciences (now College of Economics, Management and Development Studies) headed by Mr. Pedro Bago, who became the first Chairman of the Board of Directors of the DSAC Faculty and Employees Credit Cooperative (DSAC-FECC). Together with 24 other pioneering faculty members, and an initial paid-up capital of PhP24,302.33, the cooperative was raised in 1983.
On January 10, 1984, the young cooperative was formally registered with the then Bureau of Cooperative Development (now Cooperative Development Authority) of the Department of Agriculture.
In 1988, the cooperative joined the other nine primary cooperatives in Cavite to establish the Cooperative Union of Cavite (CUC) to help strengthen the cooperative movement in the province and in 1993, helped establish the first Cooperative Bank of Cavite (CBC).
It was in 1994 when the cooperative achieved its first million and joined the list of millionaire cooperatives in Cavite.
In1997, the cooperative was awarded Most Outstanding Cooperative (Credit Category) by the Provincial Cooperative Development Council.
On February 26, 2001, efforts were geared towards the conversion of DSAC-FECC into a development cooperative in order to allow expansion of services and business operations. It was proposed to be renamed as the Cavite State University Development Cooperative or CvSUDC.
On October 29, 2001, DSAC-FECC or CvSUDC received two plaques of recognition from the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA), Provincial Cooperative Development Council (PCDC) and Cooperative Union of Cavite (CUC) for its outstanding contribution to community development and for being a multi-millionaire cooperative.
On February 26, 2007, DSAC-FECC or CvSUDC celebrated its 25th Year Anniversary. At 25, the cooperative has proven to be stronger and more equipped to better serve its members.
On December 26, 2007, the Cooperative Development Authority approved the conversion of DSAC-FECC to Cavite State University Development Cooperative CvSUDC as a development and service cooperative and with the approval of general assembly decided to change development to multipurpose cooperative in 2016.
CvSUMPC since then ventured in different businesses like Bayad Center through Express Pay, travel and tours, merchandising and space rental.
Through the combined efforts made by members, officers, and management staff, the Cavite State University Multipurpose Cooperative (CvSUMPC) reached 46M in terms of total assets and gained 455 members as of 2020 that continuously patronize and support the plans and programs of the cooperative.
