ACS is pleased to announce that the online portal for the Knowledge Transfer Partnership between ACS and the University of Oxford is now online.

The Knowledge Transfer Partnership is the product of a collaboration between ACS and the University of Oxford that seeks to better understand the economic, social and environmental contributions that local shops make to their communities.

Since the two-year Knowledge Transfer Partnership between ACS and the University of Oxford began in March this year, both Alison Broadby—the Research Associate from the University–and the project team have been hard at work completing the initial stage.

During the first four months of the partnership, Alison has been researching academic understanding of the c-store sector, as well as touring the country meeting members and visiting stores to identify possible gaps in the work thus far produced. The evidence review has uncovered a number of interesting potential research opportunities.

The online portal has information on the different stages of the project, as well as a wealth of resources from Alison Broadby, the Research Associate. To find out more, click here
