co-operative store
b. In Great Britain after about 1850, the word became current in the designation co-operative store, denoting the shop in which a co-operative trading society exposes goods for sale (originally to its own members only, but later usually also to the outside public). Commonly in plural (‘The Stores’), applied esp. to the establishment of any of the larger London co-operative societies, consisting of a number of departments, each dealing in a separate class of goods. In imitation of this use, the plural (‘——'s Stores’, ‘—— & Co.'s Stores’) was often adopted as the designation of a trading establishment resembling ‘The Stores’ in extent and in multifariousness of business.
