A New Partnership

Formed in 1977, Nisa is a convenience retailer that operates on an independent franchise model.  A wholly owned subsidiary of the Co-operative Group, today there are almost 3,500 stores operating across the country.

RMS has been working with Nisa since early 2019, providing them with merchandising services to assist with their store transformation projects on behalf of the independent franchisee.  Using our innovative scheduling technology, flex, to build and optimise teams with the right skills, reliability and qualifications, we have assisted the transformation of over 100 stores nationwide to the Nisa brand standard.  The projects in particular, where we are working with the smaller independent retailer go right to the heart of our purpose - “to contribute to our partners’ success by delivering a better shopping experience.”      

A History of Convenience

Our experience of providing merchandising services to the convenience store sector stretches back over 10 years.  We worked very closely with The Co-operative Food to open 600 of their stores, and we were heavily involved in their most recent rebrand in 2016.  Practically every Co-operative Food store has had some form of RMS involvement in terms of store improvement.
