Tesco have today announced that they will be opening a new premises in the Callow\'s Yard development in Castletown.
It will be in the format of a Tesco Express convenience store, taking up a significant portion of the Callow's Yard site.
The development will create 20 new jobs for local workers.
Tesco corporate affairs manager Matthew Magee has said 'we're very proud to be part of the Callow's Yard development, we're also very proud to be creating 20 new local jobs in this economic climate.'
No official opening date has as yet been confirmed, 3FM have been in Castletown gauging the opinions of the public and local retailers and it would appear that public opinion is very much split.
