Sainsbury's sets opening date for Harrogate town centre store
Sainsbury's has confirmed that its new store in Harrogate town centre will finally open next month.
The Sainsbury's Local on Cambridge Street will welcome customers on January 13. The supermarket chain had hoped to open in the summer but only received planning permission in July.
The store will create about 25 jobs and some roles are still available.
Surplus food from the store will go to Harrogate District Foodbank, which has partnered with Sainsbury's to help those who need it most.

New store manager Simon Wilton said:
The development will bring the former Topshop unit at 33-37 Cambridge Street back into use after four years.
The developer plans to split the building into three separate units. Sainsbury’s occupies the largest on the left side.
Skipton Building Society is also planning to move in but it is unclear at this stage which business will take on the third unit.
