The operator of the supermarket has not been identified - but many residents on social media have already expressed a desire to see an Aldi or Lidl on the site.
Halesworth Town Council is set to discuss the plans for the store, which could create 30 jobs, in an extraordinary meeting on Zoom at 6.30pm.
