Franchising details
SPAR is the largest food store chain in the world operating with over 12,500 stores in more than 40 countries. Our six-decade history means that we are experts in the field with plenty of experience in what we do.
This is evidenced by our 13 million global customers’ everyday which brings about £29 billion of revenue. What makes SPAR the world's choice is our recognition on wider range of products; while we offer our own goods and services, we also let local suppliers market their products in our stores. This makes every outlet relevant and distinct to the place it is located.
SPAR's international dominance in the food store chain industry is a testimony of our adherence to our name which literally means “Door Eendrachtig Samenwerken Profiteren Allen Regelmatig” and translates to English as “All will benefit from joint cooperation”. In other words, SPAR believes in the importance of collective and mutual success enjoining all franchisees in our journey of continuous prosperity.
Accolades from all over the world are living proof that anywhere, SPAR excels; the most recent of which is the “2017 Store of the Year” given to SPAR Hungary, the “Own Brand Range” given to Spar Netherlands at the 2016 Private Label Manufacturers Association (PLMA) International Salute to Excellence Awards and the “2017 Retailer of the Year Award” given to SPAR Spain by the NACS Insight International Convenience.
Having great franchisees and receiving prestigious awards is a testament of the stability and excellence of our company.
