One Stop will showcase its franchise model at the National Convenience Show, with the Tesco-owned convenience retailer displaying the benefits of becoming a franchisee.
Throughout the show, the retailer’s stand will have breadth of retail convenience expertise from across their business (24 – 26 April).
One Stop recently hit a number of key milestones, including their 300th franchise store and 1,000th total store opening. The retailer stated that it was looking to continue this growth in both store numbers and franchise partners.
The company will be showcasing their integration with Deliverect’s software, a real “game changer” to the online delivery space. This has allowed One Stop to integrate all three of their delivery platform partners (Uber Eats, Just Eat and Deliveroo) on one centralised system.
This industry-first integration is claimed to have provided One Stop with efficiencies and increased online accuracy across many metrics. This has also enabled it to more than double its online SKU count to around 3,000. Deliverect has now rolled out to more than 600 of their company-owned stores and is now starting to be introduced to their current franchise partners.
One Stop’s Head of Online, Tim Josephs, said: “I’m excited to attend the exhibition and share not just our online journey, but also how we’ve recently been able to accelerate our growth through our integration with the Deliverect software. We believe this is a real game changer in the quick commerce space and the results speak for themselves.”
One Stop will also be presenting how their broader franchise offer and support enables independent retailers to grow. One Stop’s Head of Franchise John Miller said: “We won’t just have our online offer to share, we’ll also introduce visitors to some other recent additions such as self-service tills and our ‘Selected by Tesco’ fresh range which launched last year.”
