About Me

Welcome to our MySpace! SnapShop is an online database service containing a variety of information about most of the UK’s top retailers. From restaurants and fast food franchises to fashion and entertainment high street retailers, our 2500+ records cover all of the key names in the UK retail industry, as well as identifying new withdrawals and entrants to the market.
Here are a few examples of the retailers we keep an eye on:

Information contained within our records includes recent news articles, contact information for key figures within the company, store numbers and rent details, accounting information and fascia pictures.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Who is it useful for?

SnapShop can prove a useful tool for a variety of people and companies involved in or looking at the retail market, from letting agents and retailers, to designers, store fitters, property investors and even students.
The nature and quantity of the information means that whatever it is you’re looking for, you’re likely to find it – need the history of a retailer? We try to provide founded dates on all of our records, along with all other relevant company information. Want to know how many stores a retailer has in the UK? We list store numbers and operation regions for most retailers. Looking for an overview of the UK retail market over the last few months? We source news articles and information from multiple publications and avenues and update them daily, all of which are searchable in a variety of different ways.

Why would we be trying to add you? Well, because we are either already familiar with your store/brand or like what we see and think you'd be interested in looking at what we have to offer. If you're not, then thats ok too - we'd just like to keep up with your offering, if you don't mind!
International addees: You'll notice that SnapShop is primarily based around the UK retail industry, but there is every chance that a lot of you may be from outside of Britain; SnapShop is a particularly useful tool for businesses hoping to enter the UK market as well as those already in it, and can help you identify possible partners as well as competitors, so don't write it off too quickly!

All that being said, if you’d still like to know more, please visit www.snap-shop.co.uk, message us here or email us on: [email protected]. We also have a Twitter account, so feel free to follow us and we'll follow you in return!
