The new STORRD convenience store concept is slated to make its debut this month in London in the Camden area to help urbanites easily access a wide range of high-quality fare and more. The retail location positions itself as a modernized take on the classic convenience store by offering premium deli-style foods alongside functional nutrition meals, which are all made with ingredients from British brands. The retailer is backed by investment from the Mount Group and is expected to offer Londoners a new kind of shopping experience that meets their changing needs.
Director Rachel Andre spoke on the STORRD convenience store concept saying, "Consumers want high quality food and convenience items that’s quick but also thoughtful, nutritious and exciting. STORRD brings together the best of convenience, deli culture and functional eating in one modern space.”
