The winner of our store of the week has battled crime and overcome poor store standards, store manager Lee Keeling tells The Grocer how it’s been done.
Tell me more about Huyton. What’s trade like? We have a lot of housing estates around the store, so people treat us almost like a big corner shop. They tend to pop in four or five times a week for things like milk and a newspaper. It means we have high footfall, with a lower basket spend. There are probably 5,000 extra customers a day coming to this store than you might see at another local store. Our challenge has been to tease those customers who just come in for a newspaper to buy a sandwich as well.
