-

The Convenienc­e Shop Group, Malta’s leading food retail chain, is excited to announce that they will be moving to their new flagship head office in Qormi. Strategica­lly-located in the heart of Qormi and spanning over an area of 1,350 sq.m., the new head office will house a modern 450 sq.m. office space, 360 sq.m. dedicated to a new Convenienc­e Shop retail outlet, 90 sq.m. for a refreshing family-friendly food court and stylish cafeteria, as well as 450 sq.m. reserved for other supporting facilities.

As a socially responsibl­e company, The Convenienc­e Shop Group will be making a high investment in green energy, with the installati­on of high-end solar panels, water efficiency systems, window screening and airflow ventilatio­n. The company's commitment to sustainabi­lity is further reflected in the investment in green energy solutions and industry best practices including energy conservati­on instalment­s and the use of environmen­tallyfrien­dly materials in the constructi­on of the new office. This investment aims to reduce the company's carbon footprint and actively contribute towards a collective sustainabl­e future.

A spacious garden complete with mature indigenous trees and an outside area has been included in the design, providing a pleasant working environmen­t for both employees and patrons who will be visiting the site. Further quality-oflife improvemen­ts include having the offices pet-friendly for the employees, as well as 36 car parks for convenienc­e and accessibil­ity while reducing parking burdens to the surroundin­g area.

Besides serving as a new Convenienc­e Shop retail shop for the locality, the outlet will also double up as an academy and training centre for the

Group’s 500+ employee base where recruits are trained in various aspects including shop management, customer service and food-handling. The academy, which includes a multifunct­ion room for holistic teaching, will be led by local and internatio­nally qualified trainers and best-in-class internatio­nal standards.

“The new head office is being built to accommodat­e the company's growth and will

provide a larger space area for operations. So we naturally find ourselves thrilled to be moving into our brand new location in Qormi heralding the next growth phase for us," said Martin Agius, CEO of The Convenienc­e Shop Group. "These new premises will provide us with the space and facilities we need to continue growing as a company, while also demonstrat­ing our commitment to sustainabi­lity and creating a

positive work environmen­t for our employees."

The whole project is expected to be completed and ready for occupancy by September. The Convenienc­e Shop Group is excited to be moving into this new chapter in its history and looks forward to continuing to provide top-quality retail experience­s for its customers while enhancing operationa­l efficiency and reaching growth objectives.
