Lengthy queues as new food store opens in town centre

A long queue of eager customers lined up to be the first into a new town centre shop.

Heron Foods opened up its new premises at Saint Dominic Square in Lynn at 8am this morning, within the Vancouver Quarter.

The “Top Quality – Low Prices” food store, which specialises in frozen products, was offering its first 200 customers to spend £10 or more a free goodie bag and scratch card.

And a lengthy line was spotted in the build-up to the opening, while staff cut a ribbon to mark the occasion.

Heron Foods has replaced the old Iceland shop which shut down in 2020.
