Dobbies and Tesco are set to unveil plans for their new East
Kilbride store — their first joint new-build store in Scotland.
The site at Peel Park already has planning permission for a
stand-alone supermarket and a Dobbies Garden Centre.
The companies will now host a public consultation exhibition
to hear the public’s view on the new proposals.
Their community consultation event will be held from 6pm to
8pm on Thursday, December 5 and from 12 noon until 6pm on Friday, December 6 at
The Byre, Eaglesham Road, East Kilbride.
Adam Williams, Tesco Corporate Affairs Manager, said: “We
have been keen to open a store in East Kilbride for some time now and are
delighted to be able to consult on this exciting joint scheme.
“The store will provide a fantastic shopping experience and
bring more choice and value for money to shoppers in East Kilbride.
“Our joint proposals will bring over 400 jobs to East
Kilbride and we will work with partners to recruit locally.
“We already have over 200 apprentices in our Scottish stores
and look forward to recruiting more.” READ MORE
