Co-op store manager Jay Lloyd said: “We have had a great response. The whole team is delighted to have had the opportunity to invest in Tilehurst – the store has been transformed with a fresh new look and layout, and we are really enjoying welcoming our members and customers back into their Co-op now that the works have concluded.  

“It is always our aim to operate at the heart of local life and we have worked to develop the range, choice and added services to create a compelling offer to serve and support our community, conveniently. 

“Co-op also has a focus on delivering value, with member price savings across a wide range of everyday essentials so that the people who own our business, our member-owners, benefit every time they shop.”
