Three local Northern Irish stores from the SuperValu, Centra and Mace retail brands have claimed the prestigious title of ‘Store of the Year’ at Musgrave Northern Ireland’s annual awards event, held recently at the Slieve Donard Resort & Spa, Newcastle.
Barbican Newcastle claimed SuperValu's ‘Store of the Year’ award, McGoveran’s Cathedral Quarter took Centra's ‘Store of the Year’ award and Collingwood’s Aghalee won the Mace ‘Store of the Year’ award at the awards, which commemorated the Musgrave Group's best-performing stores in the province.
Boyd’s Centra Junction One picked up the ‘Newcomer of the Year’ award.
Musgrave NI organises the event annually for its 230 independent retailers in Northern Ireland across the SuperValu, Centra and Mace brands.
Finalists were selected following several rounds of performance and standards audits.
