SPAR: A winning concept: The story of SPAR is a testimony to the
benefits of international cooperation, long before it was fashionable. SPAR
is a unique voluntary chain in which wholesalers and retailers work
together in over 33 countries under one name. This means that nearly
12,680 stores under the SPAR brand are serving a million customers a
day worldwide!
Each country operates as an independent business within the SPAR
voluntary chain system. This winning concept is strengthened by the
knowledge sharing between the SPAR countries, co-ordinated by SPAR
International.
SPAR International is responsible for the co-ordination and
development of the worldwide SPAR organisation. The Board of SPAR
International develops the strategy and agrees specific objectives to
be achieved. The current strategy ‘Towards 2010’, has focused on the
development of SPAR into new countries. While each SPAR country is
completely responsible for its own operations, SPAR International
supports the implementation of best international practice in food
retailing and distribution.
