The community profits
Traditional business models in our economic system are geared towards maximising individual profit. VERD pursues an alternative approach where the profits from services we create for the community flow back to the community.
Creating Services
VERD designs and creates services of value to you, your family and your local community.
Earning Revenues
VERD services you use earn revenues and generate profits for your local community.
Distributing Profits
Members of VERD decide how profits are allocated to benefit their local community.
