Musgrave Store of Year Finalists announced

Eighteen stores across the SuperValu, Centra and Mace retail groups have been selected as finalists in the 2014 Musgrave Retail Partners ‘Store of the Year Awards’.

Musgrave Retail Partners organises the Gala Ball event each year for its 250 independent retailers in Northern Ireland across the SuperValu, Centra and Mace brands. Finalists are selected using an independent audit of all stores, with each facing a rigorous process of checks and evaluations.  This year’s event will be held on March 7 at the Slieve Donard Hotel, Newcastle.

Musgrave Retail Partners managing director, Nigel Briggs, said: “Congratulations to all of the stores across the SuperValu, Centra and Mace retail groups on achieving finalist status in the Store of the Year awards. 

“All of the finalists have demonstrated the highest levels of customer service and offer customers a wide range of quality products. Being named a finalist is a huge achievement in itself, with the 18 nominees being chosen from over 250 stores that make up Musgrave Retail Partners Northern Ireland.”

Nigel added: “The judging process this year was as rigorous as ever and as part of a continuous drive to maintain the highest possible standards, the Store of the Year awards recognises the  ‘best-in-class’ retailers in their groups.  Musgrave Retail Partners is proud to support these stores and we wish them the best of luck for the night.”
