Abergavenny Mayor David Simcock joined local AM Nick Ramsay for a guided tour of Abergavenny’s soon-to-be-open Morrisons supermarket.

The pair joined staff and construction workers for the guided visit, last week.

The new store will include the retailer’s popular Market Street where customers can see a team of skilled bakers and fishmongers hand make foods fresh each day.

In addition, the store will include the recently launched Nutmeg womenswear collection alongside the long established children’s clothing range.

The former cattle market site is set to create over 100 new jobs, and Morrisons has begun to recruit its team of talented food-makers and shopkeepers later this year.

Thanking the staff and Midas for arranging the tour, Nick said, “It was fascinating to see how the work was coming along.

“I was particularly interested to see the ‘street scene’ inside the store and also to take in the views of the town and surrounding hills from the roof.

“I look forward to visiting the store when it opens next year.”
