Mannin Retail Ltd has submitted plans to upgrade its petrol station near Ronaldsway Airpot.
The application (24/00896/B) is for the Ballasalla Airport Garage on Douglas Road.
The plans include adding two retail units and two light industrial units, as well as the relocation of the existing forecourt canopy and pumps.
A supporting document says: “Due to its proximity to the vast Balthane Industrial Estate, the Freeport and the extensive construction works taking place in the area, the shop does well from passing trade and indeed for its size is one of the busiest Spar shops on the island.
“Trade is expected to rise considerably as the new build housing and additional industrial units become occupied.”
Mannin Retail said it is looking to expand its convenience food offering together with incorporating other facilities such as a deli with small sit in area, a local butchers and post office collection point.
