fenaco cooperative

Fenaco cooperative established its dedicated pension vehicle in 2006 to administer retirement plans for employees of the fenaco-LANDI federation. The structure remains internal to the co-operative network rather than open to external capital. The pension fund allocates across real estate and private equity, with a documented 2 percent target to PE. Confirmed holdings include direct ownership of Agrarzentrum Lyssach and the Inoverde network of 14 agricultural processing sites. All activity stays within Switzerland. No public disclosure exists on team size or additional offices. The fund participates in Swiss industry groups including Economiesuisse and the Swiss Private Equity & Corporate Finance Association. A 2023 gift of a permanent agriculture exhibition to the Swiss Museum of Transport marked the co-operative's 30th anniversary. Governance ties the pension directly to the co-operative federation, with ownership of operating subsidiaries such as Volg, LANDI Schweiz AG, and Provins exercised at the group level rather than through external managers.
