Maxol site opens following £2.3 million investment
EV charging point roll-out continues and 5 new jobs created for the local community in Northern Ireland.
Maxol has opened the doors to the new Maxol Edenderry Service Station on the Crumlin Road, Belfast following an extensive re-development.
In the newly modernised and expanded store, customers can now enjoy the benefits of a brand-new SPAR that is 70% larger than the former premises. The grocery offer has more than doubled in size to include a larger dairy and chilled range. A brand-new Barista Bar coffee unit has been installed while a Delish hot Food To Go concept with a self-serve chicken bar has also been included in the development.
On the forecourt, there is a brand new 150kw EV charge point that services two vehicles at any one time. Maxol’s Premium Fuel range has also been introduced to enable customers to make greener choices and car parking facilities have been increased from six to twenty-seven spaces giving more room to ease the flow of traffic on site.
“While on the forecourt, we have introduced Premium Fuels, Pay at Pump technology and added a new Ultra-Rapid 150 kW EV charge point that will be available from December 21. This development demonstrates our continued commitment to invest in the right infrastructure across our service station network to move Maxol to a more convenience led destination that services the community,” said Brian Donaldson, Chief Executive Officer of The Maxol Group.
The new store sees the continued rollout of Maxol’s sustainable forecourt design. From concept and construction through to the site’s ongoing operations, Maxol has worked with Henderson Group to to help Maxol Edenderry reduce its existing carbon footprint. These measures include the use of low-energy CO2 refrigeration; installing LED lighting systems; heat recovery from refrigeration for use in the Delish Food To Go Deli, and “on demand” fan controllers to reduce energy use.
