Local Centra secures prestigious wins at Retail Industry Awards in London

Bradley’s Centra Maghera was honoured this week at the UK-wide 2023 Retail Industry Awards taking home the coveted Drinks Retailer of the Year title.

The win comes after the store swept the board at the recent Retail NI’s High Street Heroes awards, taking home five gold awards including Overall Independent Retailer and Best Off Licence.

Commenting on the award, Joe Bradley, Centra Maghera owner said: “We are absolutely thrilled to have won the Drinks Retailer of the Year Award. We have an extensive range of beers, wines, and premium spirits in-store and offer competitive prices alongside the best customer service experience. We’re very proud of this achievement and would like to thank our store manager Eoghan Jordan and the entire team for their hard work.”

Paddy Murney, Retail Sales Director at Musgrave NI (owner of the Centra brand) added: “I would like to congratulate Bradley’s Centra Maghera which competed against some of the best stores in the UK, to achieve this top award. The store continuously innovates and develops its range and the team’s commitment to serving their local community with the best in modern convenience retailing is unwavering. This award is testament to that, and I’m delighted the store has been recognised as best in class for the service it provides.”

Widely regarded as ‘The Oscars’ of the grocery sector, the Retail Industry Awards reward excellence and outstanding achievement across a broad range of categories, recognising independent retailers alongside the large supermarket groups.
