Operating in Ireland for over 50 years, SPAR is one of the country\u2019s largest convenience retail groups. From the time it opened its first store in Dublin in 1963, the brand has been a leader in Irish convenience retailing, bringing consumers the most innovative products and in-store offerings. The group, which is part of leading wholesale and retail company BWG Foods, includes SPAR for neighbourhood shopping and SPAR Express for forecourt shopping. With a presence in every county across Ireland, SPAR\u2019s over 370 stores provide employment for 14,000 people locally.<\/p>\n
SPAR\u2019s Origins<\/p>\n
Founded in The Netherlands in 1932, SPAR is the world\u2019s largest grocery chain. Although there is much speculation as to the meaning of the word SPAR with some mistakenly thinking it is derived from the Dutch word for \u2018to save\u2019 Besparen, SPAR is in fact an acronym of a Dutch sentence that explains where modern day \u2018SPAR\u2019 finds its foundations.
\nBack in 1932 Van Well called his new retail concept \u2018De SPAR\u2019, which is derived from the following Dutch phrase:
\n\u2018Door Eendrachtig Samenwerken Profiteren Allen Regelmatig\u2019<\/p>\n
When directly translated means, \u2018We all benefit from joint cooperation\u2019, which remains true to this day in each SPAR country and in the network as a whole. To symbolize the strength of this organization, Adriaan Van Well used the fir tree as part of the \u2018De SPAR\u2019 logo and although the organization\u2019s name has shortened to SPAR and the SPAR tree has somewhat developed into more of a contemporary fir tree the fundamentals still remain to make it an instantly recognizable brand worldwide.
\nThe fast growth of the company continued over the years to follow with stores opening in South Africa, Japan, Eastern Europe, Argentina, Australia, China and most recently in Nigeria which is true sign of the significant growth in SPAR.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
