Plans announced for a new Costa Coffee shop in Selby

12 June 2015

Costa – the nation’s favourite coffee shop brand – has announced plans to open its doors to a new store at Selby’s Market Cross shopping centre later this summer.

The Costa Coffee shop will be over two floors in a brand new 2,246 sq. ft. unit which is being created at the shopping centre as part of a major £250,000 investment at Market Cross.

Costa is scheduled to open later in the summer, bringing up to 10 new jobs to the area and work is now underway on fitting out the new coffee shop.

The changes at Market Cross are part of the latest phase of improvements at the shopping centre by the owners, Barnsley based Dransfield Properties Ltd.

One larger unit has been created from the former Just Right Beds store and CJ’s Café, which has relocated to a new location at the centre and re-branded as The Hub. 

As part of the investment at Market Cross a new central seating area is also being created close to The Hub and attractive new planters and new summer hanging baskets, prepared by local firm Lisa’s Florists, are being installed over the next few weeks.

The Costa Coffee store will be run by one of the company’s franchise partners, Fieldrose Ltd.

A spokesman for the company said: “We are pleased to announce that we are opening a brand new store in Selby, bringing 8-10 new jobs to the local area.

"The store will be run by one of our franchise partners, a local business-person to the area who will do all that they can to integrate the new store with the local community, getting involved with events, providing the store as a meeting place and helping with fundraising."

Management surveyor at Dransfield Properties,  James Shepherd, said: “We are delighted to be working with Costa Coffee to deliver their new coffee shop in Selby. We have worked with the company in a number of locations in other parts of the country and the new coffee shop will be a great addition to the Market Cross centre.

“Shoppers will notice quite a few improvements and changes over the next few weeks and months as we are further investing in the centre with a new seating area as well as creating the new unit for the brand coffee shop. We look forward to welcoming Costa Coffee to the centre later in summer.”
