Woolworths’ next generation stores unveiled

Woolworths has opened its first next generation store at Warringah Mall on Sydney’s northern beaches last week.

The new store allows consumers to pick organic fruit and vegetables from the “largest organics range available” within a Woolworths. Health is a predominant focus of the new look store, with 26 bays in one aisle dedicated solely to healthy eating options with a large selection of new on-trend health foods and self-serve bulk foods and nuts.

Other new features of the multi-million dollar upgrade include an expanded freshly made in-store sushi section and a dedicated butcher cutting the meat to customers specifications, while also offering to spice and season. A cheese room with a dedicated full time cheese expert will offer more than 100 locally sourced Australian cheeses, while the marketplace feel of the fruit and vegetables section will extend throughout the store.
