Abstract: The role of cooperatives in Makassar City is one of the media in empowering small and medium enterprises. The efforts made by the Department of Cooperatives and Small and Medium Enterprises of Makassar City can encourage the realization of cooperatives as a force for economic growth and are able to improve the welfare of each member of the cooperative. During the Covid-19 Pandemic, the role of cooperatives in economic growth in Makassar City has not yet been maximized. Currently, the economic growth of Makassar City during the pandemic period has only moved in the range of 2.5 percent and is quite far from the ratio before the pandemic which was around 9 percent. Cooperatives should be able to contribute to a significant economic increase, because the number of cooperatives in Makassar is 1,529 units divided into 7 groups, namely Civil Servant Cooperatives, Employee Cooperatives, Savings and Loans Cooperatives, MultiPurpose Cooperatives, Primkop, Primkopol, and Other Cooperatives.
