Aldia Cooperativa Sociale

What Aldia Cooperativa Sociale does

Aldia Cooperativa Sociale is an Italian non-profit social cooperative (cooperativa sociale) operating under ONLUS designation, founded in 1977 and headquartered in Pavia, Italy. The organization delivers four integrated service lines: educational services for children aged 0-11 (nurseries, schools, summer camps), elderly care (RSA residential facilities, home assistance), social inclusion services for people with disabilities or in fragile situations, and collective catering for schools and care facilities. It serves primarily public-sector clients — municipalities, schools, and healthcare authorities — across multiple Italian regions including Lombardy (Pavia), Emilia-Romagna (Bologna area), Tuscany (Montecatini Terme), and Valle d'Aosta (Aosta), and employs 1,001-5,000 staff. President Mattia Affini leads the member-assembly governance structure typical of Italian social cooperatives.

The cooperative's service portfolio is delivered through owned facilities and contracted arrangements with public institutions; there is no proprietary technology platform or software product. Revenue is generated primarily through recurring public service contracts with municipalities, schools, and healthcare entities, supplemented by annual 5x1000 taxpayer donations under its ONLUS designation. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, as services are typically procured through public tenders and contract negotiations. The organization publishes annual financial and social reports (bilancio sociale) for transparency, and operates with no subsidiaries, no external parent or private equity backing, and no disclosed M&A or funding activity in the available materials.

Aldia positions itself as an "Impresa Sociale Evoluta" (Evolved Social Enterprise) with the motto "Persone per le Persone" (People for People), differentiating on authentic relationships and care quality rather than technology. Recent strategic activity in 2025 includes a partnership with "I Satelliti" Social Theater Company for integrated theater workshops with youth with disabilities, an educational conference series ("Attra-verso l'educativa di plesso") in Casalecchio di Reno, and territorial community events ("Aldia On The Road"). Its competitive position rests on Italian social-cooperative regulatory standing, a 48-year brand reputation, and embedded multi-year relationships with public-sector contracting authorities.
