Shepley Industrial and Provident Society was a small consumer co-operative based in the West Yorkshire village of Shepley in England. The Society, which was founded in 1852, operated a single co-operative foodstore on Station Road.
A registered Industrial and Provident Society, Shepley Industrial and Provident Society was a corporate member of the Co-operative Group (formerly Co-operative Wholesale Society) and its national buying scheme, the Co-operative Retail Trading Group.
In August 2013, the Society was wound-up and its assets transferred to the Midlands Co-operative Society.[1] This became Central England Co-operative in January 2014.
