Issa brothers' new Starbucks coffee shop at Lancashire Asda superstore
A drive-through Starbucks coffee shop could soon be built next to the Asda supermarket in Clayton-Le-Woods.
The EG Group, owned by the Blackburn billionaire Issa brothers, has unveiled plans for its latest development as it looks to build on the store’s car park. Plans have been submitted to Chorley Borough Council and would see the EG Group build on land in the car park it already owns. According to the application, the car park is currently much larger than it needs to be and it is therefore argued that the loss of 36 spaces is not problematic. Instead, the new Starbuck store would be open 7am to 11pm and create a total of 15 jobs.Access is to be made through the existing site entrance from Woodale Road with new segregated lanes to be created for the supermarket and the coffee shop. The Starbucks will be available for both drive through and customers who wish to sit inside.
The application states: “The facility will expand the range of services available in the town centre, providing new employment opportunities on both a full and part-time basis suitable to meet a range of employment needs which is a significant benefit associated with the development. The application site is well situated to serve visitors to the Asda store, other premises in the vicinity or passing by on the road network.
Chorley Borough Council will decide whether or not to grant planning permission, with the development potentially heading to planning committee where councillors would give a 'yes' or 'no'.
