WHO ARE WE?
United Enterprise Credit Union Ltd (UECUL) affectionately called “United” commenced operations in 1976 as Purity Co-operative Credit Union Limited. It is said that the General Manager at the time of Purity Bakeries asked Bro. Greenidge about starting a credit union since there seemed to be an appetite among the staff for loans. Bro. Greenidge welcomed the opportunity since he was involved with a Taxi Cooperative.
