WE’RE pleased to confirm that we have secured a new site for Greggs at Chilwell Retail Park in Nottingham, underlining ongoing resilience in the Midlands retail market.

The popular food-on-the-go retailer has now opened its doors following an extensive fit-out, reinforcing the strong demand for convenience-led formats across out-of-town and retail park locations.

This letting forms part of the subdivision of the former Poundstretcher unit, with the adjacent new Superdrug unit further boosting the site’s retail mix. Both deals speak to continued confidence from national operators in Nottingham and across the East Midlands.

Our 2025 Market Insite report highlights that food, beverage and leisure occupiers remain active despite wider market pressures, particularly where consumer demand for quick, grab-and-go options is strongest. The Chilwell Retail Park deal underpins those findings and evidences the resilience of retail parks in attracting leading brands.

This latest Greggs opening follows several other Nottinghamshire sites we have supported, including new stores in Carlton, Wilford Lane and Arnold.

Sam Hall, associate director at Innes England, said: “Greggs continues to be one of the most active and recognisable names on the high street and in retail park settings. This site at Chilwell Retail Park highlights the brand’s diverse property requirements, whether that’s drive thrus, drive tos or strong high street locations.

“The deal also reflects wider shifts in consumer spending habits, with strong demand for convenient, grab-and-go formats. We’re pleased to have supported Greggs once again in expanding its network and look forward to seeing this new location thrive.”

Gillian Long, retail operations director at Greggs, added: “Our new shop in Chilwell Retail Park has brought 14 new jobs to the local area, as well as providing customers with a modern, convenient new place to experience their Greggs favourites.”

Agents with suitable sites for convenience, food-on-the-go or leisure occupiers are encouraged to contact Sam Hall for further details.
