ACS is calling on retailers to respond to the ACS Investment Tracker Survey looking at the convenience sector's investment priorities over the last three months which closes today.
The short survey's responses support ACS' work in Parliament, representing the contribution local shops make to the country's economy. The Investment Tracker also shows government the potential impact that policy decisions, such as the introduction of the National Living Wage, can have on small businesses' ability and willingness to invest in their store.
The Survey asks questions about recent and planned store investment, the cost of the investment, and the area which the investment is being made, such as refrigeration, new stores and/or store refits.
The first ACS Investment Tracker was launched earlier this year, showing that convenience stores had invested £177m in their stores between February and May 2015.
The full survey can be found here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Investment_Tracker_Sep_2015. Responses are due by today, Friday 11th September 2015.
