The Nisa Blog

Looking at @coopuk results today, @NisaRetail has lost over half a billion a year in turnover since they took over. Talk about doing a shit job @PeterBatt3 This is what happens when you refuse to listen to your customers. @CStoreTweets @AsianTrader @retailexpress @TheGrocer

@NisaRetail Don’t go near it with a barge pole, these guys couldn’t find their arse with both hands. Their own label is way overpriced compared with their own stores. Don’t do it.

Being a Nisa retailer and having access to trusted Co-op own brand products & their high quality 100% British meat (across all products including ready meals and food to go) means you'll be the first point of call for your local community. Details here- spr.ly/6017isgZ9

As the business pages are full of analysing the failure of Morrisons & Asda since their takeovers, perhaps the press should look at @NisaRetail and how it has fallen since the CoOp takeover. It would make a nice story. @olivershah

@JackCourtez @NisaLocally @BetterRetailing @ThisIsRN I would say they are reacting because the @coopuk has cocked it up from the start and @NisaRetail customers have been flocking elsewhere. Basically they have been shite.

Nisa reacts to 'tough market' with more large value packs, hundreds of price cuts and changes to how it measures its prices against rivals betterretailing.com/nisa-reacts-to… @NisaLocally @BetterRetailing @ThisIsRN

@TheGrocer So 40 of probably the most un-loyal @nisaretail customers now don’t have to pay the fuel levy. 🤔 Is @PeterBatt3 just plain stupid? There should be no fuel levy! Their customers already pay an annual fee and surcharges on probably the most expensive cost prices in the sector.

Nisa pauses fuel levy for 40 retailers to assess impact on business thegrocer.co.uk/nisa/nisa-paus…

Reports coming in from @NisaRetail members tonight that #Nisa is unable to supply Hot X Buns for Easter. @PeterBatt3 your organisation is in the dustbin….I bet @coopuk has stock for Easter. @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @AsianTrader @TheGrocer

@PeterBatt3 keeps saying he listens to his customers and acts. The one question his customers have and he will not answer is why is it cheaper to go into a @coopuk retail store and purchase own label than from @NisaRetail ? @TheGrocer @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @AsianTrader

Just read @TheGrocer article with #Nisa MD @PeterBatt3 What a load of bollocks. If that is how he sees the organisation my recommendation, phone @Morrisons quickly. @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @AsianTrader

@olivershah You should speak to previous Nisa chairmen and the previous CEO, who by the way orchestrated the meetings between influential shareholders and @coopuk during Sainsburys due diligence. Once Read was appointed Nisa became a lamb to the slaughter.

@olivershah you should look at how once in position he changed the rules on election of board members. He had to sanction who stood for election allowing only the weak and manipulative members to be elected. Once achieved a sale was easy.

@olivershah you should be looking at Mr Read, Nisa and his dealings to sell off the business. Did he force a clause in his contract for a huge bonus if it was sold? Why were @coopuk having secret meetings with major Nisa shareholders during Sainsburys period of due diligence?

Does not surprise me that the weasel is under investigation by the @PostOffice @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @TheGrocer @AsianTrader @NisaRetail @coopuk

Surprise, surprise…Nick Read wants more money according to the ex-Chairman of the @PostOffice About time people started looking at his time at @NisaRetail and his dealings with the @coopuk Were the shareholders lied to? @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @AsianTrader @TheGrocer

So Filco, one of the biggest supporters of the CoOp takeover of Nisa are deserting the sinking ship. How has the @coopuk got it so wrong? @NisaRetail @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail @AsianTrader @TheGrocer @PeterBatt3

Nick Read made to look like the same dick as when he ran @NisaRetail How this man ends up in these positions, god knows. @PostOffice @CStoreTweets @retailexpress @AsianTrader @TheGrocer

@carolvorders @AndyMcDonaldMP Mr Read has always run the companies that he has been CEO to maximise his bonuses. Take a look at what he did to the @NisaRetail members. Robbed them blind then sold it from underneath them. Nobody knew he had a clause in his contract that allowed a massive bonus if he sold it.

Watch @AndyMcDonaldMP grilling the current Post Office CEO Nick Read last June "What is so extraordinary about you that you feel you deserve a whacking bonus of £455,000 to make your total pay £870,000" Andy: The metric used to calculate part of the Post Office executives' bonuses was based on false information in the accounts relating to the inquiry into the Horizon scandal. Andy: The executives must return all inquiry-related bonuses immediately

Also may I add what the hell does this person know about the independent sector? Like you @PeterBatt3 very little. @NisaRetail seems to be sinking faster than the Titanic.

Another Retail Director @PeterBatt3 Have you told her how shit your offer to retailers is? Recruitment and retention should be dead in the water for @NisaRetail while you arrogant people refuse to listen to what is left of your customer base. @CStoreTweets @TalkingRetail

I have heard that @NisaRetail is increasing it’s fuel delivery surcharge. Is it @PeterBatt3 goal in life to line his customers up, get them to drop their trousers and bend over, so he can fuck them up the arse? The man is a disgrace. @coopuk

I love listening to a group of @nisaretail customers who always come to the same consensus, Nisa Trading do not have a clue and basically the whole organisation is f**k*d. @PeterBatt3 @coopuk @TalkingRetail @CStoreTweets @AsianTrader @Independentgro3
