An application has been made for Costa Coffee to come to Bingham. This proposal will take a business premesis that has been empty for many years and turn it into a vibrant and successful coffee shop. A local businessman has applied to become a franchisee and will, no doubt, employ local people all of which helps the local economy. The more people who come through Bingham and stop for a Costa means more people popping in to other shops too!
For those saying 'not in my backyard', take a second to think about all of the fast food outlets and beauty salons that have opened in the town without so much of a murmur. The town needs some successful 'big business' to help drive competition.
They'll open early to cater to the commuters and sell a cup of coffee at a price that is consistent with the rest of Costa Coffee, therefore not deliberately undercutting the competition.
