Building profitable partnerships & driving growth

Co-op is the number one convenience retailer in the UK, servicing 8,000 physical touchpoints, including company owned stores, stores run through franchise partners, independent co-operative societies and through its wholesale business, Nisa.

Our mission remains the same, to help independent retailers thrive and grow. And that’s what we do every day. We believe in the power of fresh thinking, and this is our promise to ambitious entrepreneurs.

The unique offer from the Co-op Group is that we’re able to offer entrepreneurs the freedom to trade in a way that suits them, whether through the flexibility and choice of the wholesale model or through the consistency and simplicity of the franchise model. We’re looking forward to meeting ambitious retailers from across the industry to see how we can build profitable partnerships through our customer centric proposition.
