Background

The Ramsden Group of Companies are a long-established Grimsby based business with divisions covering wholesale cash and carry and delivered wholesale from Grimsby and Hull, retail through a large home interiors store, a growing company-owned convenience store group operating across the North of England predominantly along the M62 corridor and also an IT business providing Epos systems throughout the UK and Northern Ireland.

The family-owned business was founded in 1946 by the current Managing Director, Nick Ramsden’s grandfather, and his father Dudley was the joint founder of Nisa and a very well known character in the industry.

The Story

My relationship with the business and family goes back far too long!

I have a very close relationship with the group and attend all board meetings. Weekly monitoring of the group’s growing Company owned convenience store group along with advising, profiling and negotiating new site acquisitions are an important part of my work with the group.

We will continue to add stores through acquisition and new build developments building a strong and sustainable group of quality convenience stores.
