Nearly 200 people gathered to celebrate the grand opening of a new store in Daisy Lane, set within the vibrant new Kingsgrove housing estate, on Thursday, March 13.
The event kicked off with excitement as the first 50 shoppers were awarded a golden ticket, each guaranteeing a prize. Lucky winners walked away with items ranging from luxury hampers to £100 worth of in-store spending.
Adding to the occasion were enthusiastic local schoolchildren from Wantage, who had the special task of helping to cut the ribbon alongside their headteacher, officially opening the store to the community.
The celebrations featured complimentary tastings throughout the opening weekend, and all shoppers enjoyed a 10% discount for the first ten days as a special promotion.
The Midcounties Co-operative food store is now serving the community daily from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., providing a variety of essential grocery items. Customers can look forward to fresh fruit and vegetables, high-quality meats, beautiful flowers, and a selection of wines, spirits, and chilled beers.
Additional amenities within the store include an in-store bakery, a Costa Express machine, and a diverse range of frozen ready meals alongside convenient hot food options for those on the go.
