SPAR International has rolled out a number of online initiatives this year, starting with the online publication of Contact International, the magazine developed for SPAR Partners and Retailers. A fully refreshed website was also launched as well as an internal communications platform featuring SPAR Partner news and information.

In our 2015 SPAR International Annual Report, launched in May, we drew attention to the positive achievements of our many partners across Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East – summarising the exciting developments and innovations that have contributed to the strong performance of SPAR worldwide.

An ePub version of the 2015 Annual Report is available for viewing here. It includes a video message from Managing Director, Tobias Wasmuht and an interview with Yoep Man, Managing Director of SPAR China, which outlines the strengths of the SPAR Brand in China and the opportunities that lie ahead.

The Annual Report is now also available for downloading in German, Italian and Spanish in PDF format.

Contact International issues 1 and 2 are now available in mobile friendly versions or to view on a desktop by clicking this link.

As we move into the second-half of the year, the focus on mobile-friendly online communications will continue.
