A new Greggs store has opened in Blackburn, creating 10 new jobs for the area.

The store is located near to the entrance of the Hill Street Tesco and the Enterprise Centre. The building off Harwood Street was knocked down and re-built and also houses offices.

The new Greggs is one of 100 that the chain is opening in 2021 stocking the popular sausage roll, the vegan sausage and bean and cheeZe melt and items from the new autumn menu.

Shop manager Barbara Sadowska said: “We can’t wait to welcome both Greggs fans and new customers to our brand-new shop. We’ve got an amazing range of tasty bakes, hot drinks, sweet treats and savouries available for takeaway, click and collect or Just Eat delivery.”

Roisin Currie, retail and people director for Greggs, said: “Our new shop in Blackburn has brought jobs to the local area, as well as providing customers with a modern, convenient new place to experience their favourite Greggs food.”

Customers will be able to make click-and-collect orders via the Greggs app, while delivery orders can be made via Just Eat. The Blackburn shop includes seating and is open from 7am Monday – Saturday and 8am on Sundays.

The location also includes a Nuttall Unit so customers can purchase some of Greggs hot items such as Southern fried chicken goujons and potato wedges.
