Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 3 Nov, 06:56 · Archive

Cladding installation has begun on Norfolk's first Costco warehouse at Broadland Business Park near Postwick. The 13,300 square metre building, developed by RG Carter, will be East Anglia's first Costco. The main steel frame is complete and construction of the two-level car park, which will include 600 spaces and a tyre service facility, is underway. Specialist roofing works are taking place as the outer layer of the warehouse roof is installed.

The building is expected to be water-tight within the next month. The store will stock bulk goods aimed at business owners on a membership-only basis, and will include a bakery, butchery and service deli. The development at Broadland Business Park will also feature a petrol filling station and electric charging points.

Costco has not yet revealed a specific opening date, stating that construction schedules and other requirements can affect timings. The development is expected to create a minimum of 160 permanent jobs and will be located alongside existing businesses including a Premier Inn, Costa Coffee and the Broadland and South Norfolk Council offices.
