Samy Limited was established in 2009 and has over this period grown to become one of the UK’s leading independent retail operators of convenience forecourts & stand-alone stores. The business currently operates or manages directly 32 convenience stores or forecourts.
Samy Limited is not a corporate retailer and we are proud of our independence which we believe is a key strength that allows us to respond to our customer and local markets. Our stores & forecourts operate and trade under a variety of fascia’s or brands that are appropriate to each of the catchments & location they serve. Our independence and that retail flexibility allows us to build on that competitive advantage
At present, within the Samy Limited portfolio we trade as Budgens, Spar, Londis & Premier. Our ambition is to become a national operator but as we grow we are currently focussing our attention on Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, the Midlands and South Yorkshire as well as the North East & Tyneside. In each location, we operate we have a reputation for building sales in each of the opportunities we have converted & brought across to our Group.
As a business, our growth phase only really commenced in earnest 2013 and since then we have grown modestly at a rate of only 1 or 2 stores per annum. Prior to that Samy Limited were focussed on building the business’s reputation for customer service & quality as a commission forecourt operator. This drive allowed us to build our brand to 16 within the Cambridge & Colchester area. Our ambition is to increase our business within the existing areas of operation to c100 stores within the next 3-5 years. ...Show less
