HEB secure new Heron Foods store for Chilwell

Acting on behalf of well-known property company Hofton & Son, heb have secured the letting of a former Sainsbury’s local store at Blenheim Drive, Chilwell.

The store was closed by Sainsbury’s last year and HEB have secured a deal for it to be re-occupied by Heron Frozen Foods.

‘This densely populated area of Chilwell has been somewhat lacking a convenience store facility since Sainsbury’s decided to close’ commented Robert Maxey of heb Surveyors. ‘It was therefore pleasing to see Heron step in to the gap and I do not doubt their store will be a fantastic success and welcomed by local shoppers.’

The store is planned to open on 24 May and Heron are understood to be currently recruiting staff.

Heron were represented by James Lamming at Barker Proudlove in Leeds.
