Great support from their local MP. We’ve experienced strong support for our @P4G_advice mentoring initiatives from local MP’s, so it is well worth engaging with your local MP for support. #shoplocal

Really useful store visit yesterday with @Alex_Stafford, MP for Rother Valley. Thanks to store manager Tim Farmer for showing him around the store and talking about the role it plays in the local community

[Partners for Growth @P4G_advice]

What a brilliant initiative that taps into the very heart of the local community. Understandably popular within the community, we wish it every success!

Delighted to be in Bradford for the launch of Tong St Community Shop. In a highly competitive field, this model is the most compelling community business approach I’ve seen in my time in the industry. Fair to say there’s some local interest in the opening

[Partners for Growth @P4G_advice]

A fantastic example of a Convenience store playing to its convenience strengths by offering innovative products to make it a destination in the local community and helping to maintain margins, whilst still offering great prices! A great team and valued @P4G_advice panel member!

Is there an official publicised limit of Evian cases that you are allowed @mrkishorpatel ? Seems an extreme policy to have, assuming you paid for it?!

[Kishor Patel @mrkishorpatel]

Ffs after 37 years of retailing & supporting the wholesalers i have been banned from @BookerCatering WATFORD for buying 5 cases of Evian water for two shops!! Fully respect restrictions @TheGrocer @ACS_LocalShops @swads1971 @AsianTrader @TalkingRetail @CStoreTweets bothered!! 🖕🏽
