ames Hall & Co has opened a new Spar store and Shell service station in Radcliffe, Greater Manchester. The new store, on the busy A58 connecting Bolton and Bury on the junction with Watling Street, sits on the site of a derelict pub. It includes many of the features that customers have come to expect with James Hall & Co owned Spar outlets, with a Graham Eyes butcher’s counter, Clayton Park Bakery section and a range of food-to-go, including the Spar deli, forming the in-store experience. Popular products including the Tango Ice Blast and F’Real Milkshakes and Smoothies will be available to customers too, as well as a broad range of chilled and frozen foods, and a beers, wines and spirits area. The store opening has created 27 jobs, with recruitment ongoing.

The forecourt area of the site includes six pumps, air and water machines, an ATM, and 19 car parking spaces. Two electric vehicle charging points will also be installed on the site in the coming months. Fiona Drummond, Company Stores Director at James Hall & Co, said: “Our Radcliffe site is an exciting development and is the latest in our new generation of company-owned service stations. “The site is perfect as it is accessible for serving the growing community in Radcliffe while also meeting the demands of passing trade on what is a busy route for motorists. “It has also created a number of new jobs for local people in the Radcliffe area, and we wish our new team well,

led by manager Olivia and assistant manager Michelle, as they welcome customers into store.”
