HAPI COOP

What HAPI COOP does

HAPI'Coop (legal entity: SCIC HAPI'Coop) is a French multi-stakeholder cooperative of collective interest (Société Coopérative d'Intérêt Collectif, SCIC SA) founded in October 2020 and headquartered in Saint-Sébastien-sur-Loire, Loire-Atlantique. It develops, manages, and operates inclusive shared housing (habitats inclusifs) for people with disabilities and other vulnerable groups under the framework established by Article 129 of the 2018 Elan law. The cooperative delivers two core product formats — Habitat partagé (individual autonomous apartments with shared common spaces) and Habitat regroupé (grouped independent dwellings with shared common areas) — augmented by integrated medico-social accompaniment (SAAD, SAVS, SSIAD, SPASAD services), social-life animation via dedicated per-habitat coordinators, rental intermediation for social and private landlords, and real-estate project engineering.

As of 2025 the organization operates 11 inclusive habitats across Loire-Atlantique and Vendée serving 101 residents, employs a team of 21 (19 employees plus 2 volunteers), and has 19 projects in development representing 180 additional dwellings. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and community-rooted: prospective residents enter through information sessions, a candidacy form, and participatory workshops, then integrate as tenants and cooperative members. The business model blends three revenue streams: recurring rental income from directly owned or intermediated dwellings, public funding (CNSA AVP experimental envelope, departmental and regional grants, CAF, ARS subsidies), and one-time solidarity-based social share subscriptions priced at €100 per share under the Finansol label with IR-PME ESUS 25% tax advantage. Governance is distributed across five stakeholder colleges (inhabitants/citizens, employees/volunteers, project carriers including major disability federations, associations, and partners including social housing operators and developers), with 83 shareholders and an elected board of 7 entities and 2 individuals. The cooperative holds ESUS agrément, the Finansol label, and has appeared on the FAIR/La Croix Baromètre de la finance solidaire for three consecutive years (2024-2026).
