Independent Achievers Academy 2021/22 finalists revealed!

Congratulations to the 31 local news and convenience retailers that are exceeding expectations in the IAA disciplines below. Since 2006, the Independent Achievers Academy (IAA) has set out to help independent retailers to improve standards, grow profits and celebrate their achievements through its learning and development programme. Over that time the IAA has shone a light on some truly inspirational stores, and this year is no exception.

We’re excited to announce the Category Stars and the Overall Best Shop as the IAA Gala Dinner returns on Wednesday 13 July at Eastside Rooms, Birmingham.

The Gala Dinner is a fantastic opportunity celebrate the stars of independent retail and to network with like-minded, success-focused business owners and innovative suppliers. To find out more and secure your space please click here:
