Bestway Retail, part of Bestway Wholesale, the UK’s largest independent food and drink wholesaler, has announced that Peter Patel, the entrepreneurial multi-award-winning store owner, including Asian Trader of the Year 2023 winner, has opened his tenth Costcutter store in Warley, Brentwood.
This latest store – formerly a Morrisons – has undergone a full refit representing an investment of £150k and been relaunched as Costcutter, part of the Bestway Retail family.
The official opening of the store, which took place last weekend, was attended by over 150 people throughout the day and was officially opened by Eastenders legends, Jake Wood and Ricky Norwood.
Peter Patel, who heads up the Zola Group, said, “This is one of four stores that we have bought from Morrisons and will be converting to Costcutter to deliver great value and innovative product ranges to our customers. It’s incredibly exciting to see our Warley Store open its doors after an extensive refurbishment and the opening on Saturday was a huge success.
“Not only were we delighted to welcome Eastenders legends, Jake and Ricky to open the doors, but we wanted to donate all profits from our promotions on the day to Thurrock and Brentwood Mind , which is a charity that gives extraordinary support and campaigns for people living with mental health problems, and their families.
“Our partnership with Costcutter is very important to us giving us the service, insight, and support that helps us make possible for our customers”.
Jamie Davison, Retail Director at Bestway Retail said of the new Costcutter store, “It’s great news that Peter is opening another store as part of our Costcutter family, as he adds to his already impressive portfolio.
“As with all of his other stores we know this one will be a huge success for him and his team and we’re looking forward to working with him to support his team in every way possible.”
