Overview
- Openings and re-openings scheduled for November and December lift 2024/25 store projects to more than 200 as part of an investment exceeding £200 million.
- Fourteen sites are brand new, including the first permanent retailer at Brent Cross Town in London, five micro-format On The Go outlets, and a franchise at Lancaster University.
- The remaining stores are returning after extensive refurbishments with updated layouts and ranges.
- Each location will offer member price savings, parcel collection, and rapid delivery via Co-op’s online shop and partners Just Eat, Deliveroo and Uber Eats.
- The expansion continues as Co-op manages the fallout from an April cyber attack that it says cut earnings by about £120 million and sales by roughly £206 million, alongside renewed lobbying for business-rates reform ahead of the Autumn Budget.
