COSTA Coffee has announced that it is to open a brand new store at Launceston Retail Park in the autumn.

Costa will fit in alongside a new M&S Food store while variety retailers B&M are also confirmed to be coming to the site.

While no official date has been confirmed as to when Costa will open, teams from other Costa stores in the town enjoy being an active part of their community, participating in local activities and events, such as involvement in the local carnival committee, Launceston in Bloom and local litter picks.

A Costa spokesperson said: “Costa is pleased to confirm that a brand new store on Launceston Retail Park will be opening in the autumn, bringing 8-10 new jobs to the local area. We are looking forward to opening our doors and welcoming customers into the store, as well as being an active part of the local community, getting involved with events, providing the store as a meeting place and helping with fundraising.”
