A NEW Co-operative store has opened in Basingstoke and will create 16 new jobs in the community.
The store is based in the Merton Rise estate and also features new EcoBlade technology developed by motor racing engineers in its fridges to improve refrigeration efficiency and reduce cold air being lost into the aisles.
Andy Thompson, store manager, said: ""We can't wait to tell people more as well as welcoming new faces through our doors.
"There is a huge drive towards cutting greenhouse gas emissions from our business by 2030 so I'm pleased to showcase the part our store is playing in achieving these goals."
The store opened its doors on Wednesday, October 27 and is located in Wallingford Road, Basingstoke, RG24 9QD.
There are Amazon lockers and an ATM.
