For the first time in seven years, Detling villagers can make a quick trip to the shop.
Hundreds were on the village green on Saturday for the opening of its new store.
Richard Finn, a member of the village store's committee, said: "The grand opening went very well.
"A lot of people thanked us for getting a shop back in Detling. I was more pleased to hear people's response to our refillable, recyclable, local produce.
