Henderson Retail
Henderson Retail owns and operates 111 SPAR and EUROSPAR stores in Northern Ireland. Many of these are petrol forecourt sites, affiliated with major oil brands. In 2025, Henderson Retail will complete its installation of bp pulse Electric Vehicle (EV) charging points at all forecourts, providing an additional 200+ EV charging points to the infrastructure in Northern Ireland.
Henderson Retail is one of the top retailers in the UK, and Northern Ireland’s largest independent fuel site operator. The business continues to receive industry recognition for its achievements, and in 2024, became the 10th organisation in Northern Ireland to achieve Platinum Investors in People accreditation.
The company has received multiple industry awards over the years, including Community Retailer of the Year, Forecourt Retailer of the Year and Convenience Retailer of the Year. The company’s stores have also received awards such as Store Team of the Year for EUROSPAR Doagh, Post Office Retailer of the Year for SPAR Mallusk, Forecourt Retailer of the Year (EUROSPAR Hillcrest, Portrush) and multiple Store Manager of the Year accolades.
Henderson Retail has also received honours in recent years from the Forecourt Trader Awards, Grocer Gold Awards, Belfast Telegraph Business Awards and the Convenience Awards.
Operating in the heart of every town and village across Northern Ireland, Henderson Retail stores act as hubs for their local communities. Each store has an Automated External Defibrillator installed outside the store, providing community access 24/7 and all are registered with The Circuit and the NI Ambulance Service.
Henderson Retail continues to invest in sustainable builds and business practices throughout its stores and operations, with solar panelling installed at 42 sites so far, equating to the reduction of around 320 tonnes of carbon. Fridge door trials across select stores showed a reduction of imported electricity of 16%, allowing the trial to roll out across even more stores. It will amount to a saving of 186 tonnes of carbon per year.
