Developers Jos. Richardson & Son are developing a new site called Eden Service Station, located just off the A64 alongside the busy A169, next to the Eden Camp visitor attraction.
Planning permission was already in place when Jos. Richardson & Son bought it last year, with the planned costs of £6.5 million set to include almost half (£3 million) to be spent on the store.
The new fuel station will be BP-branded and the convenience store will be Spar-branded with James Hall of Preston being Jos Richardson & Son’s long-term convenience store partner. The hot and cold food to go offer will include James Hall’s Clayton Park Bakery and Cheeky Coffee Co brands. Twelve new jobs, a mix of full and part-time roles, will also be created.
Joseph Richardson, managing director, said: “The site’s located on a busy commuter route that’s also popular with tourists and day-trippers visiting the coast, York and the North York Moors. Before we bought it, the developer had already secured planning permission for the service station and restaurants.
“On another plot on the same site there’s a new McDonald’s and there’s also planning permission for a drive-through coffee shop. This was very appealing to us as it will make the area an important hub for the local communities of Malton and Pickering, as well as those passing on their commute to work or enjoying holidays and day trips.”
