CO-OP workers in Malmesbury kicked off a nationwide consultation on the supermarket chain’s future.

The country’s largest mutually-owned firm has teamed up with YouGov to carry out research among customers that will be fed directly into a major review of the business by chief executive Euan Sutherland.

“The Co-operative is a community-based retailer, which means it is really important to be in touch with what our customers, and the wider public think, not just about us, but also about the communities we share, High Street store manager Andrew Weller said.

“I want to make sure that people in my local area know how they can have their say on topical issues, the way we operate, and our future.”
