The Food Store, which is based in Top Road, Calow, offers shoppers a wide range of products and is fitted out with pioneering new energy efficient refrigeration technologies to minimise environmental impact, LED lighting and a lifesaving defibrillator.
To mark the opening, staff were joined by representatives from the neighbouring Chesterfield Royal Hospital to cut the ribbon and declare the store open for business.
