By retailers, for retailers

As we’re a member-led organisation, our Board of Management is made up of independent retailers who steer the association and make sure we’re continuously serving the needs of our members.

No two businesses are the same, but many independent retailers face the same challenges and are driven by the same goals. Our Board of Management is here to understand exactly what our members need from us and make sure we continue to evolve and deliver for them.

As a retail trade association, we aim to do everything in our power to make a difference to our members’ businesses. From continuously striving to exceed expectations to always representing great value for money, we never rest on our laurels or take your membership for granted.
