HOW plans three Waitrose-led schemes
HOW Planning has been appointed on three schemes for food retailer Waitrose, part of the John Lewis Partnership.
Manchester-based HOW is providing advice on preparing planning applications for Chester’s Boughton Centre, where a mixed use scheme including a full offer Waitrose food store will be the mainstay of a new high quality redevelopment scheme.
It is also working up planning applications for two other mixed use schemes at Northwich and south Shrewsbury which will be anchored by Waitrose food stores.
Gary Halman, partner at HOW Planning, said: “Waitrose has just announced exciting plans to open many more new stores throughout the UK and these three schemes will form part of their expansion strategy, further enhancing their presence in the north of England.
“We are delighted to be working with such a fantastic retailer with a great approach to sustainability and a commitment high quality development, which makes them so attractive to planning authorities, local communities and elected members alike.”
HOW Planning already acts for a number of major retailers including Marks & Spencer, Sainsbury’s, B&Q and Lidl.
