Pizza chain Domino's submits plans for first Bridgnorth branch
Pizza giant Domino's has submitted plans for its first ever Bridgnorth branch, a year after it revealed it was eyeing up the historic market town.
A year after Domino's revealed it was hoping to open its first store in Bridgnorth, plans have been submitted to the local authority.
If approved, the new branch will join also-new-to-town takeaway giants McDonald's and Starbucks at Chartwell Business Park.
In April last year, the pizza chain revealed it was eyeing up the historic market town for its next branch.
At the time, bosses told the Shropshire Star they were planning on opening a store on the town's High Street, next to Greggs.
A vague opening date of 'spring 2024' came and went - and now, a year on, the town is still without a Domino's.
But the new plans suggest that's about to change, with the company having submitted plans to set up shop in one of the new units at Charwell Business Park.
According to the planning application, the store would be open from 11am to 11pm seven days a week.
While it's not clear how many new jobs would be created, the applications state the store would "generate a significant number of full-time and part-time employment opportunities, the majority of which will be sourced locally".
The application is open to public consultation until June 12, and is available to view online on Shropshire Council's planning portal using reference number 25/01764/FUL.
