Convenience Store is the market leading fortnightly for small stores selling the ‘convenience mix’. The new look Convenience Store magazine is aimed at the independent and neighbourhood retailer. It aims to be inclusive where others are exclusive, and to advise the retailer on all aspects of running their businesses, from which products to stock, to how to deal with the taxman. Every issue therefore contains an upbeat mix of industry news, letters and industry specific consumer research.

On top of that is new product and promotional coverage and, unique to Convenience Store, Business Matters, which is designed to help the independent retailer run their operations more efficiently. This is backed with category specific features on everything from confectionery to ATMs and wine. General features are wide ranging and have included a focus on the organic market, how to run a post office, surviving a flood and shopping at the cash & carry.
