COFFEE giants Costa will open its new store in Dovercourt in June.
The international brand confirmed it was opening a store at the former Bonmarche site at Harwich Gateway Retail Park, off Freshfields Road, after Tendring Council gave permission for the unit to be split in two last year.
The new store is set to create 15 jobs.
A spokesman for the chain confirmed the store was expected to open in late June.
It will be run by a franchise partner, who will be a local businessperson.
Sandwich firm Subway is likely to occupy the other half of the unit.
