Well, a difficulty raising money makes starting them hard too. I mostly know of successful worker coops in businesses like grocery stores that have somewhat predictable margins, flexible pricing, and not a strong incentive to expand. It seems to work well for the employees in those coops at least, and they're pleasant to shop in.
