Shelving used in new supermarket revamp

New shelving was one of the features of a store revamp unveiled last month by a supermarket. According to reports in Kincardineshire Today, The Co-operative food store and petrol station in Stonehaven benefited from a refurbishment which saw additional shelves and various other features added.

In total, the developments cost £250,000 and as well as the shelving, eco-refrigeration units were installed and the look was completed with contemporary decor. Also, for the benefit of customer service, a new till was added.

The refit was intended to increase the emphasis in the shop on chilled and fresh foods and the extra space was needed because there was an increase in the range of such goods being stocked.

Meanwhile, there are now more in-store baked breads and pastries, as well as a selection of local bakery products.

And those who enjoy a tipple were not neglected either, as the retail outlet now has a larger choice of chilled wines and beers.

Commenting on the changes, store manager Karen Milne said: "We provide a much valued service for the local community and I am confident our shoppers will be delighted with our improved store and wider selection of goods which will better meet all their daily grocery needs."

Up and down the country, the Co-operative Group uses a considerable number of shelves to hold the products it sells. According to the firm, it is the fifth largest food retailer in the UK and the third largest retail pharmacy chain.

In total across all its operations, the firm employs a total of around 120,000 people and claims to have 5.5 million members. Meanwhile, it operates in the region of 4,800 outlets.

As well as its shops, it has a significant presence in the banking and insurance sectors and it operates a funeral services division as well.
