Three member-owned and governed cooperatives with distributor members serving the plumbing, HVACR and electrical industries - BLUE HAWK, Embassy and IMARK - have formed the United Cooperative Alliance of America. Its mission:to enhance business practices across multiple verticals and help build upon the foundation already in place within BLUE HAWK, Embassy and IMARK. All three organizations are member-owned and governed, with each committed to full disclosure to its members on all financial and directional issues of their respective organizations. Two board members from each organization, along with the president or CEO of each, serve on the new group’s board of advisers.
