Is it a co-operative society??

'de facto' company

I don't have the specialist knowledge to knwo whether this fits in your context, though it seems to in a genarl sort of way...

But 'de fait' often translates by the Latin equivalment 'de facto', as came up only recently in a KudoZ question --- you really ought to have tried a glossary search first.

Although Asker's context did not make this clear, in fact it has subsequently been revealed that the 'société de fait' is in fact a standard form of company in France (cf. SARL, etc.), and as such should perhaps be regarded like an untranslatable proper noun; this glossary entry should therefore be treated as merely a plain language explanation of it, and not a 'translation' as such.
