The chain said that sits alongside an increased range and choice of fresh, healthy produce, ready meals and pizzas, award-winning wines, free-from and vegan products, Fairtrade, food-to-go and, everyday essentials.
Students in Kington who are TOTUM cardholders, the new name for NUS extra, can pocket a 10 per cent discount off groceries at the Co-op.
Store manager Simon Clarke said: “The store has a great new look – we have had a fantastic response."
"It has been a fantastic opportunity to carry out such a significant programme of works to enhance and improve our store for the Kington community.
"We have enjoyed welcoming customers into their new-look store now that the extensive works have concluded. We have worked to develop the range, choice, products and services locally that will create a really compelling offer in our community.
Co-op also provides a funding boost locally and saves shoppers money through its re-launched membership scheme.
In addition to in-store offers, members are rewarded with two pence in every pound they spend on Co-op branded products added to their own personal membership account balance.
The Co-op also donates a further two pence in every pound to community causes. Community groups currently benefitting include Kington Town FC Youth Team; Kington Bowling Club and, the Radnor Valley recreation and amenity centre.
