Tasty lunch treat for 300 pupils after SPAR Pinchbeck refurbishment

SPAR Pinchbeck has celebrated a store refit with a grand re-launch event and healthy lunch giveaway for more than 300 local schoolchildren.

The store on Knight Street re-opened its doors last Thursday (February 25) after a major refurbishment. It now features a brand new Daily Deli food service department, offering hot and cold food to go, and an improved fresh produce and bakery range. Bread, rolls and pastries are freshly baked at the store and delivered daily from local suppliers.

To celebrate, the store laid on a re-launch event involving special offers, free food and drink samples and a prize draw. Staff members delivered a free SPAR healthy lunch pack to every pupil at Pinchbeck East Church of England Primary School.

Store manager Karen Stubbs said: “SPAR Pinchbeck is a store based at the heart of the community and so what better way to mark our store refurbishment than with a free lunch for local schoolchildren.
“We hope to continue to work with Pinchbeck East Primary School in the future by hosting store study tours and supporting their upcoming fundraisers.”

SPAR Pinchbeck was taken under new management in September 2015 by family-owned business Blakemore Retail, which has to improve store standards over the past few months. The healthy lunch packs were donated via the Blakemore Foundation charitable trust.

Karen added: “We’re excited for customers to see our newly refurbished store, in particular the addition of our Daily Deli food service offering, so please come and pay us a visit!”
