Our Co-op Roots
Back in 2005
We had no idea how popular the MEC™ Turtle Light would be. These days the unassuming little light can be found pretty much everywhere, from bikes, bags and jacket zips, to tents, purses, and pockets. In November 2010 the 1 millionth Turtle Light was sold. Imagine, a million little Turtle's lighting up the world.
