Convenience Store Finance

Large online shops, perhaps surprisingly, mean that convenience stores have a growing market, with top-up food and additional services both growing areas of demand.

The industry is growing at nearly three per cent, according to official figures, driven primarily by top-up shopping. Supermarkets have begun to compete with traditional convenience stores; however, entrepreneurs have the chance to retain and grow their market share by innovating, delivering a superb customer experience and personalisation, and expanding the product and service offering to include things such as courier drop-offs and collections.

Other convenience stores are seeking to invest in their premises and stock offerings, moving towards niche product lines that better suit their local customer demographics and providing an enticing store experience that goes beyond the ‘pint and a newspaper’ offer of former years. This investment, of course, requires access to finance. Business loans can be hard to come by via traditional high street banks, but businesses need to be able to preserve their working capital to maintain business security.
