Industry body kicks off new prize programme
THE Federation of Independent Retailers (the Fed) has kicked off a new exclusive benefits programme for its members, offering store owners a raft of goodies to redeem.
Called FedPlus, the new scheme offers a range of discounts on a host of goods and activities, from everyday to luxury products and across a wide variety of areas.
This will see Fed members bags some exclusive deals on a range of money-saving benefits from health and well-being brands, to home and car essentials as well as food and drink, fashion, tech, entertainment, travel and experiences.
Further to this, the new FedPlus programme includes a Savings Calculator to show how much retailers have saved on these deals, based on monthly or annual spending.
Members can access the new scheme now via The Fed’s website.
Mo Razzaq, national president of the Fed, said: “In my inaugural speech at the Fed’s Annual Conference in June, I spoke about the importance of providing more benefits to help members make money, save money and make business easier.
“just four months on, we are delighted to bring you FedPlus. This is an exciting new addition to our ever-growing list of members benefits which brings you quick, at your fingertips access to several offers across a wide range of categories so the money in your wallets and purses goes even further in these financially strained times.”
FedPlus is managed and run for the Fed by Parliament Hill Limited, which has been providing benefit management services for membership organisations for the last 20 years.
This will mean top name companies will provide discounts towards the programme, including Virgin Experience Days, Boots, Currys and Halfords to name a few.
Tom Sparke, joint managing director and client services director at Parliament Hill, said: “We are looking forward to working with the Fed to assist them in the fantastic support that it provides for its members.
“The Fed has a strong commitment to supporting its members, which aligns with the Parliament Hill ethos of placing the needs of our clients’ members at the heart of what we do.”
