Kilgetty Co-op re-opens following major makeover

31 October 2024

Kilgetty Co-op re-launches following an 8-week programme of works and improvements to ‘transform’ the store.

Located in Carmarthen Road, Kilgetty, the 10,500 sq ft store supports approaching 30 local jobs and serves-up an increased range of fresh and chilled produce alongside its focus on meal ideas and everyday essentials; bakery and dairy products; food-to-go and meal deals; Fairtrade products; award winning wines; ready meals; pizzas; vegan and plant-based products.

A Costa Coffee Express machine has been added, and there is a photo booth. Parcel collection services are also available through DPD and InPost Locker.

Electric vehicle charging is proving popular after the service has been added to the re-surfaced car park as part of the works.

The online home delivery of groceries is available through Co-op’s own online shop – shop.coop.co.uk - with orders picked fresh in the local store and then delivered quickly and conveniently in the community.

David Darracott, Co-op Store Manager, said: “The whole team is delighted to have had the opportunity to invest in Kilgetty - the store has been totally transformed, with a fresh new look and layout it looks fantastic. It is always our aim to operate at the heart of local life and we have worked to develop the range, choice and added services to create a compelling offer to serve and support our community, conveniently.”
