Halle, Belgium, 2016-Dec-01 — /EPR Retail News/ — On Wednesday 30 November the renovated Colruyt store in Gosselies will open its doors after a few months of renovation work. This new-generation Colruyt store has been expanded and completely reorganised. The butcher’s department has been completely renovated, and a Collect&Go pick-up point has been added. In March 2017, Colruyt Group’s toys specialist Dreamland will open a store on the same site.
New-generation store
Store manager Luca Tiepido: “Colruyt renovates its stores to make them more efficient and to make it nicer for customers to shop. For instance, near the fresh market we replaced the plastic flaps by an air curtain. When making renovations, we always aim at simplicity and the lowest costs, as our customers expect of us.”
Wider aisles and a new butcher’s department
“We expanded the store and widened the aisles”, the store manager explains. “This enables customers to shop even more efficiently. And we can offer them a broader range of food and non-food products.”
The fresh market has also been enlarged. For fresh quality meat, customers can visit the brand-new butcher’s department. Head butcher Maxime Grandjean: “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.”
Collect&Go shops for the customer
Colruyt Gosselies now also has a Collect&Go pick-up point. Luca Tiepido: “Collect&Go is Colruyt Group’s handy online shopping service. Customers send their shopping list to collectandgo.be or via the app, and the Collect&Go employees have their products ready at the pick-up point on the day and time of their choice. Handy!”
Special open evening
From Wednesday 30 April, store manager Luca Tiepido, head butcher Maxime Grandjean and their 50 employees will be on hand to welcome customers at the renovated Colruyt Gosselies.
Luca Tiepido: “The evening before, on Tuesday 29 November 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!”
