“Appy Shop has enjoyed incredible growth over the past 12 months, and we have started 2021 in a fantastic position. This new partnership will aid our reach to even more retailers and will help us to continue to build on our successes from last year.”

Steve Hodson, Unitas Wholesale trading controller added: “As customer behaviour continues to change particularly in light of the pandemic, providing stores with the technology to offer these types of services to their customers is vital in the convenience channel and also to create a differential versus local competition.”
