Supermarket chain Sainsbury’s has acquired another former Homebase site as part of its expansion plans.
The retailer is looking to convert the disused unit in Bredbury, near Stockport, which would mark its 13th conversion of a former Homebase store after acquiring a dozen of them last year, The Grocer reported.
Sainsbury’s unveiled its first Homebase conversion last month in Lowestoft, Suffolk, as well as opening two supermarkets in the old East of England Co-op sites in Felixstowe and Brightlingsea earlier this year.

The Range owner CDS Superstores, which acquired the Homebase brand, snapped up 55 of its units, while five sites went to B&Q and three were bought by Ikea.
