Service et Servi Express

Owned by food giant Metro, Service and Servi Express banners bring together independent c-store owners offering a customized grocery service adapted to the specific needs of their customers. Both banners believe flexibility is key to better meet every retailer’s needs. In some stores, the offering will include bakery, delicatessen items, pastries, prepared meals, fruit and vegetables and frozen products. With GEM, there are nearly 430 in Quebec according to Metro.

Type of Franchise

Membership in one of the two banners is essentially based on a supply agreement so that the retailer remains totally independent in merchandising, marketing, operations and others. And like those who post the GEM banner, Marché Extra! and Marché Ami are mostly supplied by the Metro warehouse in St-Jean-Port-Joli, which strengthens their presence in neighboring regions such as Bas-St-Laurent, Chaudière-Appalaches and the Capitale-Nationale.
