Shoppers have welcomed a new frozen food store at the site of a former Sainsbury's outlet that had closed down. Heron Foods opened its doors on May 24 in Blenheim Drive Chilwell. The new shop has created 21 full time and part time jobs and will be open every day of the week from 8am to 8pm. It stocks food and drinks, cleaning supplies, health and beauty products and pet products.
One person who was impressed was Lindsey Holmes, who was out shopping with her baby Ernest. She said: "To be honest I just wanted to be nosy as we’ve been desperate for a shop down here since Sainsbury’s shut.
"It’s really nice to have a shop again. I needed some stuff for baking and it saves me going all the way to the Co-op.
