Spending in Nottinghamshire has included a new store on High Street, Warsop, and 'regeneration’ of its stores on Selston Road, Jacksdale, and on Mansfield Road, Skegby.
Co-op said the food stores now offer shoppers ‘a more expansive range of products and are fitted with pioneering, new, energy-efficient refrigeration technologies and LED lighting to minimise environmental impact, while all stores are powered by 100 per cent renewable energy’.
