The Japanese Consumers' Co-operative Union has 314 member societies with 30 million members (https://jccu.coop/eng/jccu/who-we-are.html https://jccu.coop/eng/jccu/who-we-are.html).

The Mondragon Corporation had 81,507 employees in 2019 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondragon_Corporation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mondragon_Corporation). But that's only the 7th-largest company in Spain by asset turnover.
