Halle, Belgium, 2016-Aug-15 — /EPR Retail News/ — On Wednesday 10 August, the renovated Colruyt store in Soignies will open its doors after a few months of renovation work. The store has been expanded by half its original size and restyled into a new-generation Colruyt store.
New-generation store
Store manager Frederic Mayne: “Colruyt renovates its stores to make them more efficient and to make shopping for customers more pleasant. When making renovations, we always aim at simplicity and the lowest costs, as our customers expect from us.”
Wider product range and new butcher’s department
The store’s sales area has been expanded to 1,800 m². Customers can now find a wider assortment in every department, in both the food and the non-food section. The freshmarket and the frozen products department for instance are now considerably larger. For fresh quality meat, customers can visit the brand-new butcher’s department. Head butcher Claude Troch: “Our customers have a nice overview of the range of meat, cold cuts and salads. And they can see the butchers at work in an open workshop. Customers can easily talk to them if they have questions or special orders.”
3 extra check-out points – 10 in total – ensure an even smoother service. And the car park was expanded.
Collect&Go shops for the customer
Colruyt Soignies now also has a Collect&Go pick-up point. Store manager Frederic Mayne: “Collect&Go is a handy Colruyt service where we shop for our customers. They send us their shopping list via collectandgo.be using their PC or smartphone, and the Collect&Go team has their products ready at the pick-up point on the day and time of their choice. It’s a handy service, and they save time!”
Special open evening
From Wednesday 10 March, store manager Frederic Mayne, head butcher Claude Troch and their 39 employees – 7 more than in the old store – will be on hand to welcome their customers at the revamped Colruyt Soignies.
Frederic Mayne: “The evening before, on Tuesday 9 August from 5 to 8 p.m.,everyone is invited for a store preview. During this special open house, customers will be offered snacks and a drink. Everyone is most welcome!”
