The joint BP and Marks & Spencer development will offer motorists a wide range of M&S quality food alongside BP’s own Wild Bean Café drinks and hot food.
The store now offers motorists the chance to fill up their shopping baskets at the same time as they fill up with BP’s high quality fuel, car parking, air and water, a toilet accessible to disabled people as well as a baby changing-room.
Mark Witham, BP district manager said: “The introduction of the M&S Simply Food range means we now have a total of 20 jobs for people in the local area. It’ll be open 24/7 providing customers with a selected range of Marks & Spencer’s high quality fresh, innovative food alongside the best of BP fuels and our very own Wild Bean Café.”
BP’s Wild Bean Cafe offers quality hot and fresh food and drinks. The first customers at BP on West Hill will also receive a range of discounts and a free ‘bag for life’ to help their future shopping.
BP owns and operates more than 300 forecourts in the UK, with a further 950 BP-branded sites owned and operated by independent dealers. The first BP M&S Simply Food store was opened in 2005 at BP Hammersmith in London. There are now more than 230 in the UK.
