2024 Winner: “It takes a village”
Is one of our favourite quotes from Fiona Matthews, MD of Applegreen ROI, featured in the 2024 Winners video below. Her words perfectly capture the spirit of team work and collaboration that drive excellence in convenience retail.
In 2024 we had 32 outstanding entries from 15 countries across 6 continent.
Our global panel of Judges then had the difficult task of narrowing these down to a Top 12 shortlist. Then you, the global industry, voted online through October 2024 for your Top 3.
In a closely contested competition, with over 9,000 votes cast, the 2024 ‘Best Foodvenience Store in the World’ went to Applegreen Rathcoole, Ireland!
Profile highlights include
- Foodvenience Strategies: signature products, day-part strategies, balancing speed, consistency, and quality, and world class coffee and beverage offers.
- Digital Engagement: loyalty programs, online ordering, delivery, and the use of social media to connect with customers and showcase foodservice.
- Operational Excellence: building foodservice operations for success: from kitchen layout and equipment to training and culture.
