At FPP we consider the sharing of content and knowledge to be one of our principal responsibilities. We’ve created FPP Checkout to allow us to deliver against this.

The purpose of this platform is to simplify the consumption of content. With so many sources in both the offline and online world, it’s easy to fall behind on essential reading. Checkout finds relevant, up-to-date information and delivers it to you in one easily-accessible environment. What’s more, we also use Checkout to provide FPP category analysis and opinion whenever and wherever relevant.

Checkout is a platform designed with you in mind. And that doesn’t just apply to the content we deliver, but also the way in which we deliver it. We provide information that isn’t just relevant to the industry as a whole, but relevant to you as an individual.

If you click on ‘My Account’, you’ll be able to select the categorical content that is of interest to you. This will allow us to prioritise the content that we know you like.

We use a number of sources for the articles featured on Checkout. Whilst we won’t necessarily cover all of the publications you access, below is a list of the most common to try and give you as much as possible in one place:

Dark stores in existing supermarkets are ‘the future of UK grocery’

Internet-only ’dark stores’ attached to the biggest supermarkets are the future of UK grocery, according to Supermarket Income REIT.

Supermarket Income REIT is the second property company in a week to highlight how the big four are increasingly taking space from the trading floor in the biggest branches to use for dark stores serving online orders.

Supermarket Income REIT, which owns five Tescos, three Sainsbury’s and one Morrisons, said it was actively targeting omnichannel stores and the extra value they presented.

“We invest in omnichannel stores, which we believe are the future model of grocery in the UK,” said chairman Nick Hewson. “Omnichannel supermarkets operate both as physical supermarkets and as online fulfilment centres. We target stores which perform a critical role in the business strategies of our tenants.”
