Congratulations to YCDCo on their 20 year anniversary!

Owned by the community, for the community..

Who is YCDCo?
The Yackandandah Community Development Company Ltd (YCDCo) was established in March 2002 by seven local residents, concerned by the impending closure of the township’s only fuel outlet.

Through the establishment of the YCDCo entity and the construction of a modern service station, fuel supplies were secured for the long term. Over the years YCDCo has extended its product range to include rural supplies and hardware. From its beginning, YCDCo identified itself as being in the ‘Community Development’ business. We support the local economy through employment, community grants and community initiative sponsorship.

Today, YCDCo is an unlisted public company with over 650 shareholders, most of whom are local residents. YCDCo proudly provides fuel, building, hardware, gardening and farming supplies locally in Yackandandah. Offering quality products and services to the local community and supporting initiatives from local community groups. YCDCo also owns and publishes Yackity Yak, their our local bi-monthly newspaper.
