Tonight I won't be able to make it to the Big Local meeting, but will keep in contact.
We are basically talking of a mutual company or a cooperative.
I'll be presenting a preliminary assessment of market demand and an idea of production costs in relation to materials, machinery, land, building facilities and salaries.
An idea is that shares will bring in dividends to their holders based on profits, while a part of the profits would be invested in Company expansion and further local employment.
As a rule, the companies, or cooperatives, could not expand beyond Kent, and would preferably avoid loans.
This is why the process needs to be well thought out before it starts, as it would rely on local investment.
Because shares are not loans, and share-holders are liable to lose their money if something goes wrong, it needs to be well thought out to avoid this happening.
