B&M's supermarket chain will be moving into a former Peacocks site in south Bristol. The move means there is no longer a branch of Peacocks in the inner city area, with the closest stores located in Hartcliffe, Emersons Green and Keynsham.
A temporary banner for Heron Foods, B&M's food subsidiary, has been draped across the Peacocks sign on the East Street building. The sign reads: "Your new Bedminster store opens on Thursday 25th August."
Work is now underway to transform the former clothes shop into a Heron Foods branch, which would make it the first branch to open in the city. There is also a B&M Express store in Shirehampton that sells Heron Foods products.
