Spar is broadening the scope of its Multiple Retail Group to include Spar own label products for the first time.

The scheme, which pays quarterly retrospective discounts to retailers that stock an agreed range of products, had paid out more than £2m in rebates since its inception in 2000, said trading director Tom Davies.

By adding 250 Spar own label lines to the scheme, members stood to gain a further £300,000 in annual rebates.

He added: “The Multiple Retail Group has been a great success within Spar by increasing distribution of must-stock items and allowing Spar to capitalise further on its considerable buying muscle.”
