Hundreds Flock to the opening of Brand New Spar Store in Pentre

NEW SITE FEATURES GREGGS AND AN EXTENDED RANGE OF FRESH AND LOCAL PRODUCE

Hundreds of customers attended the opening, taking away free goodie bags, prizes and great deals and discounts

The eagerly awaited new SPAR Ton Pentre has opened its doors with a new state of the art shopping experience last week, featuring a larger range of fresh product, local Welsh suppliers as well as the exciting addition of a Greggs.

The new larger store has been designed to meet the needs of the local community offering value on the doorstep so you don’t have to travel elsewhere. The addition of a larger County Bridge meat range ensures that there is always a meal solution for tonight’s tea, and SPAR are proud to support local farmers and producers with BLAS, Village and Edwards products now available in store.

Local Councillor Norman Howell Morgan officially opened the store, recognising SPAR’s contribution to the Ton Pentre community for almost 50 years. Store Manager Matthew Jones thanked the crowd of locals who gathered for the opening and welcomed them into the new store.

 To celebrate the grand opening, the first 100 customers received a goodie bag containing a selection of great value SPAR brand products offering all round value for everyone. Many walked away with shopping vouchers and free product, while children enjoyed face painting.

Store Manager Matthew Jones said: “We are delighted to see so many people at the opening this morning. Everyone is so happy with the new store. We offer exceptional value whether you shop with us a little bit, or a lot, and we are proud to serve our neighbourhood with fresh, great quality products. From the forgotten ingredients to tonight’s tea, we bring value right to your doorstep.

“We are especially proud that our team is embedded in the heart of the community, making it particularly meaningful to recognise our colleague Ceri with an award, today, for her 40 years of service.”

With a modern and easy-to-shop layout, customers can browse a wider range of fresh produce, alongside the Country Bridge meat range, customers can indulge in Harriet’s bakery, award winning SPAR brand wines and ensure they are always getting great value everyday store cupboard staples through the Tesco Price Match.
