Food Village gets green light

THE go-ahead has been given for a £500,000 new indoor food village in Dumfries.

The catering development will be located in the Loreburne Centre and will open at the end of the year.

Designed by RGP Architects, the contemporary new food village will provide an eclectic array of local entrepreneurs and popular high street operators in 8000 sq ft of space with flexible table and seating areas. The project is going through the final stages of design and will be put out to tender in the coming weeks.

Loreburne Centre general manager Michael O’Hagan said: “The feedback on the changes that owners Hurstwood Holdings have already made to the Centre has been fantastic and we are very much looking forward to this next important stage in its development as a key retail and leisure destination. The Food Village will dramatically improve our existing offering and is sure to attract new and existing visitors to the Centre and in turn, Dumfries.

“We plan to have the Food Village operational by Christmas this year.”
