SPAR buys stores in UK

Retail Week has reported that SPAR has bought 11 former Somerfield stores and it will convert the stores to its Eurospar format.

 Eurospar stores differ to SPAR stores
in that they tend to accommodate a larger weekly family shop rather
than a traditional convenience store. The outlets range in size from
1,524 square metres to 3,048 square metres. Along with Somerfield
stores SPAR has also voiced its interest in individual Woolworths
stores.
