Convenience store formula Spar has partnered with Quiosk, supplier of vending machines with confectionery, snacks and soft drinks. With the cooperation, Spar aims to strengthen its own presence in the petrol channel, especially at unmanned petrol sites.

Spar has been an official supplier of Quiosk since the beginning of September. The company delivers directly from its distribution centre to Quiosk’s DC in Geldermalsen. A number of EG Group’s unmanned Esso Express locations have been equipped with Quiosk vending machines in recent months. By partnering with Quiosk, Spar aims to increase the visibility of its products in the petrol channel and strengthen relevance in locations where convenience and speed are key.

Growth ambition

“The cooperation with Quiosk enables us to further expand our growth ambition in the petrol channel to unmanned locations,” says Martijn van der Hoeven, manager Multi Franchise & Partnerships at SPAR Netherlands. “This will strengthen our presence and offer consumers a recognisable and complete range, wherever they are.” Quiosk also sees benefits in the partnership: “With Spar as a supplier, we can serve our customers even better and accelerate our growth,” says Nick de Leeuw, managing director of Quiosk. “The right assortment, at the right time, in the right place; that’s what it’s all about.”

Quiosk vending machines with a presentation of food and drink products on the go can be found at more than three hundred locations in the Netherlands. The vast majority of these are at unmanned petrol stations. The offer in the vending machine gives petrol entrepreneurs 24/7 the opportunity to sell impulse items even at an unmanned petrol location.
