Premier Girdle Toll, in Irvine, has been given the green light to grow.
The plans will see the store, which also houses Quinn’s takeaway and butcher, extended to take advantage of the vacant ground at the front and side of the building.
The extension, which spans around 34sq m, will allow the store to extend one of its servery counters. It will also see a slight increase in the shop floor.
The council said: “The proposal complies with the relevant provisions of the current adopted local development plan and there are no material considerations that indicate otherwise.
“This is determined following an assessment which has had regard to the provisions of the development plan, so far as material to the application, and any other material consideration.”
