The Co-op has unveiled plans to expand its 'Food on the Go' offering with the opening of 15 new compact convenience stores across the UK. These 'bitesize' stores are strategically located in high-footfall urban areas, catering to busy commuters and shoppers looking for quick, fresh meal solutions.
Designed for Convenience
Each store is designed to maximise efficiency, offering a curated selection of grab-and-go meals, snacks, and essentials. The smaller format allows the Co-op to serve customers in densely populated areas where space is at a premium.
Meeting Consumer Demand
The expansion reflects growing consumer demand for quick, healthy food options. With more people returning to offices and commuting, the Co-op aims to capitalise on the need for accessible, nutritious meals throughout the day.
Sustainability Focus
The new stores will also feature the Co-op's commitment to sustainability, with eco-friendly packaging and a focus on reducing food waste. This aligns with the retailer's broader environmental goals.
The first of these stores are set to open in key urban locations, including London, Manchester, and Birmingham, with further rollouts planned in the coming months.
