Bestway Retail partners with APS Group to enhance branded retail environments

Bestway Retail, owner of the UK’s largest franchised off-licence and convenience chain, has partnered with global marketing services provider APS Group, in order to create and deliver an end-to-end marketing solution for its retail division.

Under the two-year contract, APS Group will be providing a range of marketing and print services for their Bargain Booze, Select Convenience and Wine Rack brands.

This will also see APS Group playing a key role in shaping the direction of Bestway Retail’s marketing strategy. Bestway will also be supported by an onsite creative service team and APS Group’s proprietary marketing technology platform – in addition to ongoing guidance, insight and creative expertise.  This partnership will allow Bestway Retail to be even more efficient in co-ordinating point of sale materials for all stores, and will be customizable to meet the individual needs of each location.

APS Group will also be delivering in-store ‘web shop’ technology, which allows stores to self-order materials as needed.

Adam Burnett, Marketing Director of Bestway Retail, said: “Our strategic partnership with APS Group has provided us with valuable insight into how we can improve our service to franchised stores and company owned stores. They are just as focused on getting it right first time and on time as we are and they have quickly become an invaluable extension to our team”

John Holmes, Executive Director. APS Group, added: “We are delighted to be helping Bestway Retail move forward and grow as a business. We’re proud to be enabling such a recognized and valued brand with enhanced in-store experiences for their customers up and down the country.”

Superdrug’s supplier conference, which took place in London last month, is a chance to celebrate recent work, highlight achievements and discuss strategy for the year ahead. There were over 30 winners across all award categories, including 90 nominees, with notable wins from organisations such as Unilever and Procter and Gamble.

Patrick Megarry, Head of Marketing at Superdrug, made a speech about the brand’s vision for sustainability and CSR before surprising us with the award win, which was presented to our very own Gavin Kyle, Superdrug’s Account Director here at APS Group.

Gavin said: “The CSR Award had been kept secret, so it came as a complete shock when we heard our name being called. It’s the first year for this category, which makes it all the more special to have won it.”

The award is an important milestone in our history with Superdrug who we’ve worked with since 2008. From in-store and POS marketing to the design, production and roll-out of creative campaigns, we’ve partnered on several fantastic projects over the last decade and look forward to continuing to deliver sustainable innovations in the future.
