Fans of the ITV soap will have become used to the comings and goings of residents on the famous street but now there's a new addition - but it's not a new character
Coronation Street has revealed a new addition to Weatherfield, but it's not a character. The ITV soap's fans are accustomed to the ebb and flow of residents on the renowned street.
The retail chain first made its appearance on the cobbles in 2018 alongside Costa Coffee. Not only did they have shop fronts on the Salford-based set, but the two companies were also allowed to display their logos on other assets such as posters, bags, and cups. Following its 'opening', it will become operational on-screen and visible to viewers from Monday night's episode . This also means that Sainsbury's bags for life and products will be integrated into the daily lives of the on-screen families and residents of Weatherfield.
John Whiston, MD of Continuing Drama, shared his enthusiasm for the partnership: "It's always exciting to welcome a new name to the cobbles, be it cast, crew or a partnering brand. Sainsbury's and Argos are synonymous with streets across the UK and it is great to finally welcome their fabulous shopfront to the most famous of them all, Coronation Street."
