Greggs is set to open a giant store in Salford Quays this summer. The high street chain already has 102 outlets in Greater Manchester, and its arrival at MediaCity will create 25 jobs.
It is perhaps a sign of the times that the company is setting up shop at the location as the cost of living soars. Last year a prestige tenant at MediaCity, the northern supermarket chain, Booths, renowned for its range of high quality food, closed. The branch had suffered "significant" losses since opening in 2011.
