A brand new Co-op convenience store is set to open in Salford Quays after revealing ambitions to open up to 75 new stores this year.
The store will be first Co-Op to open this year, and will be located in commercial retail space on the ground floor of the Anchorage Gateway, Salford Quays.
The new shop will be opened in the 29-storey residential development and will be located close to the area’s media, education and cultural hubs.
Ahead of the store opening, Simon Williams, Co-op’s Salford Quays Store Manager, said: “The whole team is excited to launch Co-op’s newest store, and Co-op’s first new store of the year.
“We pride ourselves on being able to deliver the quality, choice, added services and value which can be enjoyed by everyone.”
Simon continued: “We are really looking forward to welcoming residents, office workers and, those visiting Salford Quays and all that the area has to offer, into Co-op’s new store.
“We’re here to contribute to local life and conveniently serve and support our community.”
The new store will open on January 17 2025, and will be open between 7am-10pm daily, and will join the variety of stores around the area that include those in Media City which launched in 2022, and in Clippers Quay.
The store will be apart of the Co-op plans for around 80 further stores to undertake major refurbishments in 2025.
Rachel Hargreaves, Director of Property, Development and Estates, Co-op, said: “I am delighted to see Co-op’s first new store of 2025 launch. We are working to acquire new retail space, both freehold and leasehold, and to maximise the potential of our existing estate.
“Our stores are designed to be a destination locally, combining great quality products, value and ethical retailing with quick online grocery delivery, community participation and additional customer services.
“We have a clear focus on growing our convenience business, and providing more communities with easy and convenient access to Co-op.”
