SPAR

SPAR has been delivering convenience retailing in Northern Ireland since 1961, with over 400 SPAR stores located at the heart of local communities.

SPAR celebrates the Joy of Living Locally. While no two SPAR stores are the same, all are supported by a core commonality: local SPAR own label products, marketing, communications, promotions and store formats, allowing independent retailers to build on a core framework and proposition, ensuring they can exercise their individual entrepreneurial skill and meet the needs of their local shoppers.

For consumers, SPAR’s Joy of Living Locally position means they benefit from value on their doorsteps thanks to value prices on every day essentials; community engagement, store litter picks to nurture the neighbourhood and a genuine care for positive community impact from store owners and their teams; and a host of locally sourced and prepared own-brand products on the shelves, with over 75% of fresh products sourced from the island of Ireland.

SPAR NI has been fundraising for Marie Curie since 2017, raising over £950,000 and supporting flagship events including the annual Great Daffodil Appeal in March, while also staging additional store fundraisers including the Blooming Great Summer Weekend, which takes place each June.
