Abstract
This chapter reflects the result of the analysis of the importance of information management in organizational innovation and the generation of competitive advantages in a cooperative of aromatic and medicinal plants production. Information is the main resource of management. It is important to assume that information becomes useful only after it has been analyzed, treated, and shared. It is then that it will be available to be disseminated and shared within the organization. Cooperatives in Portugal are a form of organization through which the cooperators seek economic and commercial benefits through the resources, information, and knowledge sharing. The analysis seeks to show how the information management is carried out in this institution, in view of its relevance to competitiveness in the sector where it is inserted, seeking to support the creation of instruments that facilitate its treatment by the management and the respective availability to the various stakeholders.
