The Co-op has today (11 November) unveiled its latest new format ‘on the go’ store, in Aylesbury’s High Street.
As previously reported, Co-op’s new concept stores are focussed on serving food on the go, offering breakfast, lunch and dinner in new formats, from traditional meal deals to the inclusion of a hot food serve-over counter and deli-inspired selections.
The Aylesbury store is Co-op’s third new concept store, following launches in Solihull High Street and Altrincham’s Stamford Quarter. Described as a UK grocery retailer first, Co-op is focussing the new chain of stores in vibrant, high foot-flow locations.
At less than 600 sq.ft., the store takes cues from around the world to meet consumer demand for fast, high quality food for- now by catering to meals throughout the day.
From 7am-7pm the Aylesbury store opens to serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, with online home delivery also available - including Co-op’s Irresistible Pizzas cooked and delivered to homes and offices in the community in minutes. Seating is available, outside and in – with phone charging points.
Shane Redclift, Co-op area operations manager, said: “The whole team is excited to launch our new concept store in Aylesbury – we are looking forward to being part of the community, and welcoming members and customers into their new Co-op store.”
Gary Williams, Co-op’s director of store optimisation, added: “We’re delighted to grow our new concept with our Aylesbury store. We continually look for new ways to get closer to our customers and deliver added convenience.
“Our new concept brings together an innovative blend of food to go propositions, with freshly prepared products designed to stand out in the high street and serve this vibrant and thriving community. Catering to meals throughout the day you will find delicious products, quick service, quality and value - all in a great convenient location.”
The new store format joins Co-op’s traditional convenience stores across the UK, and is one of 50 new or refurbished stores Co-op has revealed it is opening before Christmas.
