My local Morrison's changes

Went down today. Awesome changes. It's like walking into a Spanish market or something.

Fresh herbs are lined up with a gentle misting system keeping them fresh, all manners of different fruits, vegetables and chillies from around the world, with each one explaining what country it's from and how it's best used.

The deli counter now has a large range of cured meats hanging from hooks. Again, like a continental market.

Brilliant changes. Well done Morrison's.

My one also has opened a fresh pizza counter. A very large freshly made pizza with 4 toppings for £3.50. Easily feeds 2.

I had pepperoni, red onion, green pepper and sweetcorn. It was outstanding. I very much doubt I will be buying take away pizza much more.

Just to let you know. My store in Derby has started the transformation into Store of the Future. The first things that happened (Sunday night) was the walls on my fish counter have been knocked down so its all open plan now. Customers can now see the whole department. All new tiling done for today as well. The old blue woodwork above the counters has all been ripped down and replaced with flush boarding ready for the new over head department signs.

A week next Wednesday we are getting new shelving and some time after a whole new fish counter.

I am off this week but will be popping in to keep an eye on what's being done to my own department.

The Butchery was started on too Sunday night. They have tiled the back up/prep room and on Thursday they are knocking down the walls so that will be open plan too. Not sure of the dates but they will be getting a whole new loose meat counter and inherit the sausage and bacon section from the Deli as that department will be having a massive overhaul too.

Its all very exciting. Cool story bro.

Are you getting the new fresh pizza counter?

They should also do a fresh curry counter, like Asda's do. Except with easier to open containers
