Kingswells’ Co-op (Aberdeen) re-opens following major makeover

30 October 2025

Kingswells’ Co-op re-launches (Thursday, 30 October) with a fresh new-look following an extensive programme of improvements.

The village store – which supports 15 local jobs including new jobs which have been created - has been ‘transformed’ with a brand new look and layout which includes an enhanced bakery, Costa Coffee Express, hot food and, new refrigeration which not only further cuts Co-op’s carbon footprint, but also enhances the store’s fresh, chilled and frozen range.

Kingswells’ Co-op is welcoming members and customers back into their Co-op who will see an extensive range of fresh and healthy products, food-to-go and meal deals, along with Fairtrade goods; pizzas; flowers; ready meals, award winning wines and beers and, everyday essentials.

The online home delivery of groceries is available through Just Eats and Uber Eats – with orders picked fresh in the local store, and delivered quickly and conveniently in the community.

Parcel collection services are available through an InPost Locker, Amazon and DPD.

Young Scot cardholders receive a discount off groceries in store. Member price savings create additional value for Co-op members who can save more with personalised offers, deals and promotions and, lower prices on the products shoppers buy most.

Daniel Watt, Co-op Area Operations Manager, said: “We are delighted to have the opportunity to invest in Kingswells. The store has been completely transformed, with a fresh new look and layout designed to enhance the shopping experience for our members and customers. We’re proud to be part of local community life. We have a focus on being a hub locally for the community, delivering the quality, choice, value and added services which can be enjoyed by everyone - we're here to contribute to local life and conveniently serve and support Kingswells’ community.”

Payment services are available through PayPoint, and an ATM provides access to cash in the community.

Soft plastic recycling is also available in store, making it easier for shoppers to return harder to recycle materials such as crisp packets and bread bags, lids from ready meals, biscuit wrappers and, pet food pouches.
