by Nick

Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk — An American fast food chain and a popular supermarket have signed leases to open new stores in west Suffolk.

Wendy’s will launch its first drive-thru restaurant in Suffolk, alongside an Aldi supermarket, at the former recycling site on Rougham Hill in Bury St Edmunds. West Suffolk Council confirmed that both businesses have secured lease agreements for two new buildings, which are expected to be constructed in the coming years, pending planning approval and cost assessments.

Roland Stanley, real estate director at Aldi, emphasized the importance of the development. “This is a key project for Bury St Edmunds. Our new store will provide residents with easier access to affordable, high-quality groceries, create local jobs, and contribute to the area’s economic growth,” Stanley said. “Exchanging contracts is an important step, and we look forward to continuing to work with the council and community to move the project forward.”

Cllr Diane Hind, the cabinet member for resources at West Suffolk Council, expressed her excitement about the redevelopment. “For many drivers, this site is one of the first they see as they approach Bury St Edmunds off junction 44 of the A14,” she said. “This redevelopment is a great opportunity, in line with our commitment to sustainable growth, to improve the appearance of this crucial gateway into the town. I’m pleased to announce Aldi and Wendy’s as our chosen tenants.”
