Charge While You Shop: Electric Vehicle Charging Points Now Live

We've just installed 16 brand-new electric vehicle chargers in our main car park, so you can power up while enjoying everything we have to offer at Macknade. Because how you get here matters just as much as what you take home.

With the majority of you visiting us by car, supporting sustainable driving solutions is hugely important to us, and we hope to inspire more people to consider making the switch to an electric vehicle. 

Charging facilities across the South East are still catching up with demand, so our new high-speed chargers are here to help close that gap. They’re universal (so no need to worry about compatibility), and with up to 172 miles of range in just 15 minutes, you can be back on the road in no time. The process is simple & seamless too, with access to charging via an app. 

Our CEO, Stefano, shared his excitement for the new chargers, “At the heart of everything we do is a desire to help our community live better. We have always believed that this starts with great food - food that is nourishing, packed with quality ingredients and rich in provenance - but it doesn’t stop there.

We’re constantly looking at how we can reduce our collective impact and support our customers to make more conscious choices, whether that’s reducing single-use plastics or minimising food waste. Embracing sustainable technologies is an important part of this journey and the introduction of EV charging is a key next step for us. It's great to see them already in use!
