The success of this cooperative led to the establishment of many consumer cooperatives based on the so-called Rochdale Principles, such as (1) open membership, (2) democratic operation with one person, one vote, (3) restrictions on dividends on capital contributions, and (4) distribution of surplus funds to members according to their use of the cooperative.
