COLLECTIVE BUYING POWER
The retail industry, particularly in the area of convenience stores and small food retailers, is facing increasing challenges. Consumers are being more careful about where they spend their money and how much they spend. Supplier rates are rising, so businesses are facing increasingly expensive overheads. And within this Industry, online shopping from supermarkets is becoming more popular all the time. This means convenience stores and independent food retailers are having to work even harder to stand out from the crowd and persuade consumers to spend their hard-earned dollars with a small local business rather than a large, well-known chain. AVBA is an organisation which offers membership to small businesses. Becoming a member of AVBA offers access to a wide variety of benefits as it provides collective power. This enables small businesses to reduce their overheads, improve their product offerings, and meet the challenges of the modern retail landscape head-on.
