Yeovil Co-op and Post Office re-opens its doors to the community following major makeover
28 November 2025
A Yeovil Co-op and Post Office re-launches with a fresh new-look and improved services following an extensive six-week programme of works and improvements.
The store – which is located in Stiby Road, Westfield, and supports 13 local jobs - has been ‘transformed’ with a brand new look and layout.
Relaunching following the extensive investment programme, the store includes Post Office services; Costa Coffee Express; bakery and, increased focus on fresh and healthy products. This sits alongside food-to-go and meal deals; Fairtrade goods; pizzas; flowers; ready meals, award winning wines and beers and, everyday essentials. The latest refrigeration not only cuts Co-op’s carbon footprint, but also enhances the store’s fresh, chilled and frozen range.
The online home delivery of groceries is offered through Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat – orders are picked fresh in the local store and delivered quickly and conveniently locally, often in as little as 60 minutes or less.
Self service tills have been added, providing extra ease, speed and convenience, especially at busier times.
Matt Dawe, Co-op Area Operations Manager, said: “We’re delighted to invest in Yeovil. The store has seen a huge transformation to enhance the shopping experience - the new-look store looks fantastic. 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 the community.”
