On Friday 13 November, Okay Voroux-lez-Liers will open its doors as the 158th Okay store. Located at Route provinciale, the neighbourhood supermarket offers customers a varied range of products for quick and easy shopping, also on Sunday from 8 am to 12.30 pm. The store covers 600 m² and has been built using sustainable techniques and materials. Store manager Cedric Falise and his team of 7 employees are looking forward to welcoming their first customers.
The new neighbourhood supermarket is one of Colruyt Group's latest-generation Okay stores. Its modern layout gives the store a fresh, welcoming feel. Customers will find everything they need under one roof, from fresh meat, fish and vegetarian options to prepared meals and meal salads, as well as newspapers, magazines, gift baskets and much more. \u200b
Okay's extensive range of fresh products is one of its key strengths. "In the freshmart, wide aisles and glass walls make for a pleasant shopping experience. The extensive range of fresh fruit and vegetables, delivered daily, really comes into its own here. Just outside the freshmart, customers will find a refrigerated tapas display with everything they need for a great aperitif evening. Meat, fish or vegetarian? There is something for everyone," says Cedric.
Fresh bread is delivered to Okay Voroux-lez-Liers every day. In addition, employees bake off bread, pastries and high-quality bread rolls several times a day. This means customers can find everything they need for a complete breakfast from 8 a.m., even on Sundays. Cedric: "Our bakery section has been designed with ergonomics in mind. It's easy to use for both employees and customers." The frozen food section is equipped with glass-lidded chest freezers, making it quick and easy for customers to find their favourite products.
The new store follows the same pricing positioning as other Okay stores, offering the lowest prices in the area and attractive promotions on everyday products. Alongside convenience and freshness, affordability is another key pillar of Okay's offering.
Like Colruyt Group's other retail formats, Okay attaches great importance on sustainable construction, with the lowest possible environmental impact.
"We don't use gas or heating oil at Okay Voroux-lez-Liers," Cedric explains. "Our more eco-friendly refrigeration system emits 90% less CO\u2082 than conventional installations. The heat generated by the system is recovered and used to heat the store, while the ventilation system recovers 75% of the heat."
The new Okay store is located on Route provincial 78 and is easily accessible from the main access roads. The spacious car park has space for 44 cars and features 4 charging stations for electric cars. Bicycles can be parked in the spacious bicycle parking area, with dedicated space for cargo bikes.
The opening celebrations will take place on 13 and 14 November. During the opening celebrations, customers can enjoy food trucks, tastings galore and fantastic opening discounts.
