Our Journey

A Brief History

SBMPC was founded by Fr. Patrick Kelly and Fr. Charles Gervais of the Scarborough Fathers from Canada with their motto "Saving Souls the Coop Way" in 1966. The cooperative was registered with the Cooperative Agricultural Office (CAO) as San Isidro Parish Credit Union (SIPCU) with 25 members and a fixed deposit of ₱7,628.00.

On May 30, 1975, SBMPC was registered with Bureau of Agricultural Cooperative Development (BACOD) as San Isidro Parish Credit Cooperative Inc. (SIPCCI). On April 11, 1991, SBMPC was finally registered with the Cooperative Development Authority (CDA) as San Isidro Parish Multi-Purpose Cooperative (SIPMPC) with a CDA registration number 9520-08000784 and a Cooperative Identification Number (CIN) of 0106080114.

After 50 years of existence, on June 25, 2016 marked the change of cooperative's name to Saint Bernard Multi-Purpose Cooperative.

As the cooperative approached its 60th year, SBMPC reached another significant milestone. In January 2026, the cooperative achieved ₱1 billion in total assets, a remarkable achievement attained just months before its 60th Founding Anniversary on June 29, 2026. This milestone reflects the cooperative's sustained growth, the trust and support of its members, and its continuing commitment to providing meaningful financial and economic services to the communities it serves.
