AMS is an Amsterdam-based, non-profit, strategic-buying alliance that currently works on behalf of 9 top food retailers. Since 1988, the alliance has been initiating, managing, and coordinating joint-buying activities for its shareholders and, later, for EURO SHOPPER™ distributor members as well.

By pooling and leveraging our retailers’ expertise and volume to source private label products on an international scale, AMS is able to deliver the best possible quality goods at competitive prices. This enables retailers to offer shoppers greater value for money, which improves their bottom line and gives them a clear competitive edge in today’s fast-moving retail market.

AMS’ buying service includes private labels in food, near-food, and non-food. We also offer shareholders and members the shelf-ready, AMS-developed EURO SHOPPER™ discount brand – the pan-European budget range, which is currently sold in more than 6 different countries.
