The Henderson Group, a powerhouse in Northern Ireland’s retail and distribution sector, operates some of the region’s most recognizable brands, including SPAR, EUROSPAR, and ViVO. With over 300 stores and a vast distribution network, ensuring consistent quality, compliance, and operational efficiency is a complex challenge. As a company dedicated to excellence, Henderson Group sought a digital transformation solution to modernize its compliance and quality management processes.

The Challenge

Before AuditComply, Henderson Group relied on manual, paper-based audits and compliance processes. This outdated approach presented several pain points:

  • Time-consuming audits across multiple locations, leading to inefficiencies and delays.

  • Slow issue resolution, making it difficult to track and manage corrective actions.

  • Limited visibility into compliance status across stores, affecting decision-making.

  • Inconsistent brand experience, with variations in store quality and service delivery.

As Henderson Group continued to expand, these challenges became more pronounced, requiring an agile and scalable solution.
