Co-op is set to relaunch its LlanfairPG (Anglesey) store this week on Thursday, 12 November, following a £1.1m investment.
The near 9,000 sq. ft. Holyhead Road store supports 27 local jobs, and runs on 100% renewable electricity.
Re-launching following a nine week, phased programme of works, the store includes customer car parking, Costa coffee express, hot food, enhanced in-store bakery, Hermes parcel services and kitchen-ware, alongside a focus on fresh, healthy produce, ready meals and pizzas, free-from and vegan products, Fairtrade, food-to-go and, everyday essentials.
The store has also introduced click and collect and, home delivery through Co-op’s own online shop – coop.co.uk/shop
Tom Deakin, Co-op Store Manager, said: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to make such a significant investment in the store – it really does have a great look and feel. We have worked to develop the range, choice, products and services that will create a really compelling offer and enable the store team to serve the community quickly, easily, safely and, conveniently.”
Mike Gallagher, Co-op Regional Manager, said: “Co-op is committed to connecting communities and making a difference locally, and to operating at the heart of local life. That is why we also want customers to know that they can become a Member of the Co-op. In addition to unlocking additional value and personalised offers, our Members make a difference to local causes, with Co-op now donating 2% to community causes every time a Member swipes their Membership card when buying own branded products.”
Students who are TOTUM cardholders - the new name for NUS extra – can pocket a 10% discount off groceries at the Co-op.
Contactless card payment limits are increased to £45, making it easier, quicker and safer to shop.
The Co-op’s Community Shopping Card makes it easier for those self-isolating or who have been instructed to stay at home to shop and pay for their essentials - cards can be purchased or topped-up by calling 0800 029 4592, enabling friends, families, neighbours or volunteers to shop on their behalf in store. While the store’s Food Share scheme works to minimise food waste and make a difference locally by supporting local not-for-profit organisations who work to tackle food insecurity.
Co-op provides a funding boost locally and saves shoppers money through its re-launched membership scheme. In addition to personalised offers and exclusive in-store deals, Members are rewarded with 2p in every pound they spend on Co-op branded products added to their Membership account balance. The retailer also donates a further 2% to community causes.
Co-op has around 4.6M active Members, and alongside Food, it operates: Co-op Funeralcare, Insurance, Health and Legal Services.
