Fantastic.
(GM for Convenience, Pick n Pay, South Africa)
Great day. The store tour booklet and info made the trip worthwhile. And the access you get with open and honest discussions from the stores is the reason to go on an Insight tour.
(Director of Foodservice, Petro-Canada)
Interesting that all the stores have adapted the single queue to multiple checkouts concept… it may well be applicable where we come from.
(Chief Information Officer, NTUC Fairprice, Singapore)
I did find the study tour very rewarding last week, the stores were very stimulating, eye opening and quite creative with their design and concepts. It has given me and my colleagues many ideas for our future plans.
(Director, Company Owned Stores, SPAR UK)
A learning at every spot. Less ideas for food and packaging than expected but more ideas for signage and kitchen design than expected.
( Director of Product Development, Wawa, USA)
"This chance to visit so many outlets, meeting the staff and allowing us to take pictures is very limited in this world. Learnt a lot and.. will apply in our business, especially in food to go
(Business Manager for Convenience Stores, Matrah Cold Stores LLC, Oman)
Very inspiring and educational. Some great ideas to take back to the office.
(Senior Solutions Consultant, Red Prairie, UK)
Thank you for a terrific job of organising these visits. All of the managers/owners were most helpful, cordial and interesting. These two days were a great collection of Ireland's best food retailers.
(EVP, Sheetz USA, Inc.)
Good day. Yesterdays debriefs after each store was a good experience. I think the smaller group yesterday also allowed the visits to be a little more intimate & helped in more socialisation on the bus. Well done, worth my time to participate. Thanks for a high quality learning experience.
(GM Convenience & Gas, Sobeys Convenience, Canada)
Very good organised tour. A good mix of new concept stores. Friendly atmosphere. Exceeded expectations.
(CEO, CBX, USA)
Great tour, very good blend of C-stores. Managers were very forthcoming with information.
