First look inside transformed Bristol Co-op store as it reopens after two-month closure - 'It looks fantastic'

The convenience store on Broomhill Road in Brislington reopened on Friday, April 11 with a fresh new-look, having been closed since February 15.

The 3,000 sq ft store includes an in-store bakery, Costa Coffee Express and increased range of fresh and healthy produce, alongside its focus on food-to-go and meal deals; Fairtrade products, pizzas, flowers; ready meals, award winning wines and every day essentials.

New refrigeration supports Co-op’s work to continue to cut its carbon footprint, and soft plastic recycling is also available, enabling shoppers to return harder to recycle materials such as crisp packets and bread bags, lids from ready meals, biscuit wrappers and, pet food pouches.

Self-scan tills provide additional ease, speed and convenience especially at busier times.
