MORE good news on the jobs front as the Co-operative Group has announced plans to open a new food store on the site of the former Ivy Cottage pub in Bromsgrove.
In Gibb’s Lane, Catshill, the store will open in late July and create 22 new full and part time jobs. It will offer shoppers a wide selection of fresh and chilled products, The Co-operative’s premium Truly Irresistible range, delicious ready meals, in-store bakery and an extensive wine range.
John Hillman, Co-operative Food’s regional acquisitions manager for the South West, said: “We are confident that a convenience store with a strong emphasis on fresh produce will prove to be really popular with Catshill’s shoppers. The location is ideal for us, and we are very confident the new store will be an asset to the area.”
