The UK's 'best' supermarket is opening a new foodhall in south London
Briefly

Marks and Spencer (M&S) is set to open a new foodhall in Croydon, replacing the former Milk and More dairy. Approved by Croydon Council, the project includes a car park, studio spaces for locals, and preservation of historic building frontages. M&S aims to enhance shopping experiences while supporting local suppliers. The new store is expected to create 120 jobs, appealing to Percy Pig fans with its fresh market-style offerings. Project partners, Grove Property, reported strong local support for development, reflecting the area’s potential for retail investment.
Plans for a new Marks and Spencer foodhall have been approved in Croydon, meaning Percy Pig fans in the area will now have three local stores to choose from.
William Smith, Property Director at M&S, said: 'We're reshaping M&S for growth and making sure we have the right stores in the right space to deliver the best possible shopping experience for customers.'
The project will bring a total of 120 jobs to the area, including 55 in store roles.
Nick Snashall, co-founder of Grove Property, said: 'Having acquired the site from Milk & More, our vision was to breathe new life into the area.'
