UNP Co Op 45955 Cardiff Dumballs Road050

A new Co-op store launches this week in Dumballs Road, Cardiff, marking a trio of convenience stores opened in Wales this year by the convenience retailer’s franchise partner, Universal Retail Group.

The 2,500 sq.ft. store, located in a newly regenerated residential complex, operates as a Co-op and follows Universal Retail Group’s previous successful launches in Parc Derwen in January and Morriston in June.

Suresh Edirimuni, operations director at Universal Retail Group, said: “We’re delighted to be opening our third Co-op store this year. The stores have had a great response, Co-op offers fantastic quality and value, and our team is enjoying becoming part of local community life, working to serve and support our communities.

“The franchise family at Co-op really have gone above and beyond our expectations in getting us to this point and we really look forward to seeing how this partnership flourishes further.”
