𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 ✅ 💡   In celebration of National Apprenticeship Week, we are proud to highlight one of our incredible colleagues, Johan Trosee - Wholesale Category Assistant, and his experience with the Level 4 Buying and Merchandising apprenticeship.    "I’m nearing the one-year mark in my Level 4 Buying and Merchandising apprenticeship, which is something I never imagined taking on at 40, especially while juggling family responsibilities. The experience has been incredibly enriching, allowing me to apply my new skills to exceed my usual job expectations. It has boosted my confidence and opened my eyes to future career possibilities. I truly believe this journey will lead to more opportunities, and I’m excited about what lies ahead. The apprenticeship is ideal for anyone feeling stagnant in their career. I wholeheartedly recommend this path to anyone eager to advance in their career. "   Our apprenticeship programs are designed to help our colleagues develop, up-skill, and cement their learning. With over 40 different apprenticeship programmes across all business areas, it's never too late to get started.    Find out more here - https://lnkd.in/eUmxbSP6   #NAW2025 #SkillsForLife

📢 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗢𝘄𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 📢   New data from British Retail Consortium and KPMG highlights a shift in shopper behaviour, with more consumers turning to own-label products to manage their household budgets. As food price inflation remains a concern, customers are seeking quality and value – and own-label ranges are playing a crucial role.   At Nisa, we’ve seen firsthand how a strong own-label offer can drive sales and enhance shopper loyalty. 93% of Nisa retailers now stock Co-op own-brand products, giving their communities access to a trusted, high-quality range at great value.   As we move further into 2025, own-label will continue to play a pivotal role in driving footfall, increasing basket spend, and supporting retailers in meeting the evolving needs of their communities.   Watch our Own Brand Planning Manager at Nisa, Jayne Brown, explain how stocking Co-op own brands Food for Now and Food for Later ranges can help your store stand out and grow.   Want to become a Nisa retailer & access the range?

Colleagues and retailers of Nisa are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Dudley Ramsden, founder of Nisa-Today’s. Dudley was a true pioneer whose vision, passion, and dedication transformed the independent retail sector. From co-founding Nisa in 1977 to leading it to become one of Europe’s leading buying groups, his impact on the industry was immeasurable. Under his leadership, Nisa-Today’s grew into a billion-pound organisation, supporting independent retailers across the UK. Dudley was a true pioneer whose impact on Nisa and independent retailing cannot be overstated. His drive and commitment created opportunities for so many, and his influence will be felt for generations to come. Our thoughts are with the Ramsden family and all at Ramsden International at this sad time.
