A major national supermarket is coming to Lowestoft for the first time.
A new Suffolk Sainsbury’s is on the way - and is one of ten sites that the supermarket giant is buying across the UK.
Early next month, J Sainsbury plc say they are set to buy what is currently the Homebase store on the South Lowestoft Industrial Estate.
The news follows reports that Homebase was preparing to launch a sale - with workers at the DIY store now told they will be guaranteed a job interview at Sainsbury’s.
The first of the new Sainsbury’s stores should open next summer.
