About Appleby Westward

Appleby Westward is the SPAR Wholesaler and Retailer covering the West of England.

Our Retail Distribution Centre and Support Offices are based in Saltash, Cornwall, where we employ around 2,000 colleagues who support our wholesale distribution operations for both our independent retail estate and company-owned retail stores, as well as work within our SPAR network.

Our SPAR retail stores are the leading convenience brand, operating in communities from Chichester in the east, to Land's End in the west, and to Bristol and Salisbury in the north. In addition to offering convenience goods, groceries, chilled foods, and food-to-go, we also provide essential local services at selected locations, including Post Office services, lottery, and online collection and delivery services.

We have pride in serving our communities and strive to provide an efficient quality customer service for all our customers. We also play a big role in local charity and community support and are active in fundraising for local organisations and our main charity partner Marie Curie.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
