promoting responsible community retailing
The Scottish Grocers’ Federation (SGF) is the trade association for the Scottish Convenience Store Sector. It is the authoritative voice for the trade to both policy makers and the media. The SGF brings together retailers throughout Scotland, from most of the Scottish Co-operatives, SPAR, Nisa, Keystore, Costcutter and local independents. Our members sell a wide selection of products and services throughout local town centre, rural and community stores. According to recent statistics (2007) there are just over 5,600 convenience stores throughout Scotland, with annual sales in excess of £3.2 billion.
SGF promotes responsible community retailing and works with the Government and the media to encourage a greater understanding of the contribution convenience retailers make to Scotland’s communities.
