St Helier (334): Opening

Waitrose opened its third of its five Channel Islands branches on 17th March 2011. The branch followed hot on the heels of the opening at nearby St Saviour in February.

The refurbishment of the 16,000 sq ft branch, previously a Safeway, included opening up the building’s south-facing front to provide a light and spacious environment.

Branch Manager, Jon Ford, commented that customers showed a high interest in Community Matters and ‘Genuine Jersey’ local produce – including the first Jersey Royal potatoes of the season.

Facilities currently available at St Helier include fresh fish, cheese, delicatessen, rotisserie, patisserie, meat, Mai Taiko and hot food counters.
