About SPAR China

The SPAR brand was introduced to China in 2004 with the signing of the licence agreement for the Shandong province. Today, two core partners build the brand in the north and south, extending the communities having access to SPAR stores. The privately-owned retail chains licensed to operate the SPAR brand have a cooperative relationship. As a result, this partnership aligns with the original SPAR mission of working together to reduce costs, maximise sales, and increase profits.
