Waitrose's fourth Food and Home supercentre will be built in London's Canary Wharf, it emerged this week. The store will have a 50,000 sq ft sales area, split equally between food and a range from the John Lewis department stores. The new Food and Home could open by the end of next year. Waitrose is about to start preparation works on the site of its third supercentre in Cheltenham. Construction should start early next year. The two existing Food and Home stores are in Salisbury and Southend. Although Waitrose has struggled to find sites for the Food and Home concept, MD David Felwick sees it as being a significant format for the future. {{NEWS }}
