FOOD-on-the-go retailer, Greggs will open a new shop in Portadown's High Street Mall on Thursday May 17 creating 11 jobs.

It will be the 14th company-managed Greggs shop to open in Northern Ireland in the last two years

The new shop will offer the full range of Greggs’ products – from its famous baked savouries and freshly ground-to-order coffee menu to confectionery products, soups, sandwiches and its popular Balanced Choice range.

Also available will be Greggs’ breakfast deal, which includes a bacon, sausage or egg roll plus a hot drink from only £2.

The new shop will be managed by Steven Hodgeson, who said: “High Street Mall is a very popular and busy shopping hub in the heart of Portadown and we’re excited to bring a taste of Greggs to all who use the centre.”

John Anderson, operations manager of High Street Mall, added: “We extend a warm welcome to our latest arrival Greggs. Their opening is testament to the increasing confidence in the centre.

"It will add to an already diverse retail offering and encourage an increase in footfall to the centre.”
