A new forum has been set up by the Association of Convenience Stores to discuss issues relating to members involved in forecourts.

The Forecourt Forum, chaired by c-store and forecourt operator Snax 24 MD Bill Ahearn, will meet three or four times every year to discuss forecourt concerns.

ACS chief executive David Rae said: “Forecourt retailing is an important sector of the convenience market. The Forum will provide an excellent means of developing the forecourt element of ACS’s work in public affairs, retail services and the sharing of information.”
