One Stop is celebrating the opening of its 1,000th store by giving away free loaves of bread for customers.

The 1,000th store, which is opening in Wolverhampton on Friday 17 February, will be in the same region where One Stop started its journey as a market stall, nearly half a century ago.

In addition, One Stop is giving away £10,000 to up to ten local community groups in the Wolverhampton area. Each community group will receive a donation of £1,000.

Sarah Lawler, One Stop managing director, said: “The opening of our 1,000th store is a really exciting time for our 10,000 colleagues. It is great to look back at what we’ve achieved and we’re excited about the future. We’d love to invite people into stores to have a ‘loaf on us’ in partnership with Warburtons to celebrate this milestone.”

“Part of this significant achievement is the growth of our franchise business, which, eight years ago didn’t exist. The franchise business continues to build the brand into a stronger entity within the convenience market. How we manage, learn and continue to grow the two businesses in parallel gives us a unique opportunity and I look forward to our next key milestone.

“Thanks to the dedication of our colleagues and support of our customers, we are also incredibly proud to have donated £10m to charity in the last ten years. We have always strived to give back to those who live in the communities we serve.”
