Marketfed was started as a District Wholesale Trade Co-operative Store on 24th December 1942 with an area of operation covering the entire old Malabar district. It commenced business on 14.1.1943. In 1958, it was brought under the Store Plan Scheme and converted into a Marketing Society. On 10th August 1960, this Society was converted into a Supreme Federation of Marketing Societies and its area of operation was extended to the State of Kerala. As in the case of a democratic set-up, the General Body is the ultimate authority of Marketfed. It has a total membership of 93 member societies, which includes the State Government.

Our main objectives are to provide a strong support base to the farming community across the state by providing fertilizers and other inputs at affordable prices through cooperatives and to undertake market interventions for price stability of agricultural produce. Our procurement and marketing strategies are providing great relief to the farmers in the current situation of agricultural crises. Marketfed is upholding its core values and taking into account the challenges ahead, expanding its business operations. This includes branding and marketing of its own products by procuring Kerala’s agricultural produce with an emphasis on value-added coconut and spices. Marketfed is now poised to consolidate and expand its role and is committed to sustainable cooperative economic development. In this ongoing grand journey, the new principles of the International Cooperative Alliance (ICA) and the unique codes and standards envisaged in the recently announced Kerala Cooperative Policy of the Government of Kerala will guide us in the days to come.
