Here’s what York’s newest supermarket looks like, inside and out.
The Food Warehouse has invested £750K in the 20,000 sq ft store at Clifton Moor, which opened today (Tuesday). Creating 30 new jobs, the store offers “all the great value of a wholesale store without the need for membership”, say bosses.
You can bulk buy long-lasting goods, alongside fresh and frozen foods.
There are more than 3,000 product lines to choose from. The store also runs ‘When it’s gone, it’s gone’ deals on a selection of homeware items.
Among the opening bargains at the York store are:
- a 5kg pack of chicken breast fillets for £19.99 / £4 per kilo
- a 36 pack of Walkers variety crisps for £3.99 / 11p per bag
- a 24 pack of Pepsi Max 330ml cans for £5.99 / 25p a can.
The shop also features a ‘No Bull’ vegan range.
Great opening day
“The Food Warehouse is an innovative store format, responding to the changing needs of shoppers by offering amazing bulk-buy deals and homeware offers alongside a fantastic range of frozen, fresh and chilled foods,” she said.
The York store manager Stuart West Wilson added: “Our opening day has been a great success and the whole team has really enjoyed meeting people from our local community.”
Every customer who visited the store was entered into a free prize draw to be in with a chance of winning a great selection of prizes, including home appliances.
Launched just five years ago, The Food Warehouse now has more than 100 stores across Britain.
