**About us**:
A.F. Blakemore & Son Ltd is one of the largest privately owned companies in the UK.

As one of the largest convenience retailers in the UK, we are always looking for innovative ways to create a point of difference. Food and drink have always been our lifeblood, and today our business has multiple divisions specialising in SPAR retail, food service and wholesale distribution.
