Asian supermarket Oriental Mart set to open in Beeston's former Iceland

Iceland Beeston Yan Liu Nottingham

After standing empty for 11 months, the former Iceland store in Beeston town centre is set to open as an Asian supermarket. Oriental Mart, which opened its first shop in Nottingham in 2008, has taken over the premises in High Road as part of its expansion plans into highly populated student areas.

Yan Liu, from Oriental Mart, said: “Beeston seemed like the ideal place for us to have a new store, with the tram being here, new independent businesses and a cinema opening up, as well as the ever-growing University of Nottingham with its international students. We’ve seen a shift in Nottingham becoming a more student city in the last 15 to 20 years."

Oriental Mart began as a family-run online business in 2006, delivering products across the whole of the UK. As the website grew bigger, there was a demand to open a shop in Heathcoat Street, Hockley, in 2008 - now closed and being turned into a Mexican restaurant. A second shop opened in Goldsmith Street in 2018.
