Glasgow-based Nisa retailer Raheem Ali Razaq has revealed a complete transformation of his store after investing significantly in a full refit.
Designed to revitalise the shopping experience for the community, Ali’s Nisa Royston store has undergone a redesigned store layout, enhanced product range and modernised in-store branding.
Key improvements include striking new internal graphics, a 3D fascia and bold window vinyls that showcase the store’s “fresh, professional look”, said Co-op Wholesale.
A major highlight of the revamp is the increased presence of Co-op Own Brand products, it added.
The transformation boasts clear shelf-edge labelling, branded gondola ends and eye-catching signage.
Raheem has significantly expanded the store’s chilled range, incorporating more Co-op products and a wider selection of soft drinks to meet customer demand.
He also invested in new technology to improve both the shopping experience and security. A 65-inch digital media screen has been installed at the stores entrance to advertise offers to passing customers, complemented by in-store digital screens showcasing promotions and community news.
Meanwhile, AI theft detection technology, RETaiL AI, has also been introduced, adding an extra layer of protection for staff and shoppers alike, said Co-op Wholesale.
Further enhancing the offer for local shoppers, the store features a Post Office and a Food to Go section.
Raheem, who officially took over running the family business in December 2024 after it was previously operated by his brother since 2004, said: “We’re proud to serve our local area and this investment reflects that. It’s not just about new signage – it’s about offering the right range, improving security, and creating a store our community can feel proud of.”
To support the relaunch, Raheem has commissioned billboard advertising in high-footfall areas, including near Celtic Park, and signed the store up to Co-op’s Peckish delivery app.
The store plans to celebrate its transformation with a community day at the end of June, inviting customers to see the improvements and thank them for their continued support.
