Saints Road named as ‘IGA International Retailer of the Year’

Saints Road Foodland has been recognised as IGA International Retailer of the Year in a show stopping awards celebration held in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 11, 2024.

The highly coveted award was presented to the South Australian store alongside several supporting awards for IGA retailers from around the world. The awards recognise excellence in retailing and the positive advancement of the IGA brand.

Director Spero Tsapaliaris, Executive Manager Philip Funnell and Chief Executive Officer Franklin dos Santos accepted the award on behalf of Saints Road Foodland.

The Saints Road Foodland was opened in 2019 and immediately made widespread impressions with its delivery of South Australian produce, food and beverages and world-class service – all housed under a multi-million dollar fit-out.

In 2023, Saints Foodland IGA was awarded the annual IGA National Retailer of the Year award alongside IGA National Large Store of the Year and IGA National Large Grocery and General Merchandise Department of the Year.

Foodland Supermarkets Chief Executive Officer Franklin dos Santos said the Saints Foodland has continued to drive its mission to deliver South Australians with an elevated, premium shopping experience.

“We are incredibly proud of the Saints Foodland store which has reached the pinnacle of the retail industry and once again puts Foodland IGA on the global stage,” Mr dos Santos said.

“To be recognised among more than 6000 independent retailers from around the world, truly reflects the ongoing passion and commitment from the Chapley Group to exceed customer and supplier expectations time and time again.”

“Saints Road Foodland is more than just a supermarket, it’s a destination. An international accolade such as World’s Best Supermarket will be another reason for customers to go and experience the store.”
