History
Premier Store in Greenlaw, Scotland

Premier is a symbol group in the United Kingdom with over 3,000 shops nationwide. All Premier shops are independently owned by retailers and are generally local convenience shops, stocking branded and own brand products, such as Euro Shopper[1][2][3] and Happy Shopper.[4][5]

Premier stores can be part of a group of shops in the same area, with the same group name on each store. Some premier stores include a post office and operate as a village's post office.

Tesco took ownership of the brand in 2018 after the merger with Booker Group.[6]
