Eros Retail has snapped up another store in Fife, a former Co-op in Crossford near Dunfermline.
The store – popular with local dog owners – will trade under Eros Retail’s Greens banner, with Greens of Crossford opening its doors to customers for the first time on 17 November.
Sitting on the village’s Main Street, the store had been a Co-op since 2012 after the company bought the David Sands chain.
The store’s existing team will keep their jobs and, since Greens is serviced by Nisa, Co-op brands will remain on shelves. Locally sourced additions to the offer include products from Wicked Cheesecake and Breadwinner. A Fisher & Donaldson bakery concession will be introduced as part of an overhaul of the store, which will also see investment in energy saving technology.
Eros boss and former SLR Retailer of the Year Harris Aslam said more new stores were in the pipeline: “We are thrilled to be opening three new Greens stores in Fife in November and look forward to working very closely with store teams, customers and local suppliers to retain the strong performing elements of the existing stores whilst introducing lots of exciting new products and concessions.”
