Tesco have just received planning permission for a new store at Hardwick, Kings Lynn on the former Campbell’s factory site. A new Dobbies gardening store has also received approval on the site.
The new Tesco alone is expected to provide 120 new jobs for local jobseekers.
Dobbies director of property, Stuart Wright, said, “We’re delighted to being a step closer to opening our first joint development with Tesco and giving our customers a new experience that enhances the strengths of both brands.â€
He went on to say, “We are investing some £8m in the project, which will create 120 new jobs for the community, all of which in turn will have a significant effect on the local economy for many years to come.â€
Louise Gosling from Tesco said “We’re absolutely delighted that Dobbies has been given the green light to build. This will be a great benefit to Kings Lynn providing even more jobs and services to local people. It also means we can now crack on with the construction of our first joint development and look forward to sharing the benefits of both businesses with our customers.â€
If you’re interested in the job vacancies which will be provided then review our website regularly for opportunities. Alternatively new jobs may be advertised on the Tesco careers website and local newspapers.
