“More than just shops, Scotland’s independent convenience stores often serve as pillars of their community, supporting local causes and offering a personal service that you would be hard pressed to find anywhere else.

“Convenience stores may operate in a challenging marketplace, but this year’s Scottish Grocer Awards programme has proven yet again that our nation is blessed with some of the most ingenious and hard-working retailers around.”
