A supermarket in Norwich is to be refurbished as part of a £5m project.

The Co-op store in Hall Road will close for the revamp as part of a wider investment by the retailer.

Solar panels are to be put on the roof with eco-friendly fridge units also installed. 

The supermarket will be shut from 10pm on November 16  before reopening with a new look on November 26.

Chief operating officer at the East of England Co-op, Andy Rigby, said: “We’re excited to announce these stores are to be part of our ongoing refurbishment programme and we’re excited to introduce services that will greatly enhance the experience for our members and customers.

"The improvements will make shopping easier and more enjoyable, while also reflecting our commitment to being environmentally conscious.”
