Complete Support For a Growing Business

As independent store owners become more successful, many seek to invest in their company and expand to multiple locations. When a customer of 25 years asked us to assist in acquiring his third banner store, we were eager to help. Alpha 1 advised him on securing the property. From managing the lease to providing personnel to assist in resetting the store, the Alpha 1 team was there to offer support every step of the way. We’ll be there for you, too.

Testimonials

If you want your calls and questions answered by a real, live, knowledgeable person; If you want caring responsive customer support; If you want attention to detail; If you want a handshake and a smile, not just an email or text message; You want CTown.

From day one the support and service we received from the team at Alpha 1 has been unbelievable. They took care of all our needs; pricing, store reset, shelf tags, and technology upgrades. It doesn't stop there, the support team stops by the store on a regular basis to check on service and make sure we're satisfied. I honestly believe switching to a CTown banner was the best decision I could have made for my company. Alpha 1 is proactive not reactive.
