The Knowle Society held the exhibition in Knowle Village Hall to answer questions about the Kimberley Developments plan.
Plans were submitted last October to build a store on the site of a former bowling green by The Red Lion car park off St John’s Close.
This would demolish five bungalows fronting St John’s Close and re-provide them nearby.
In 2010, the firm submitted a planning application to put the store on the site of the village hall, which would have been provided on the bowling green, but was withdrawn.
Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council will make a final decision on the scheme.
The society said: “The exhibition was extremely well attended - well over 500 people - with members of the society's planning committee being fully engaged in answering questions from members of the society and the general public.
“The exhibition included a significant list of amendments to the plans which have been 'won' by the Society being in discussion with the developers.
“Whether or not the proposal is approved, the Society aimed to get the best possible outcome for the community.”
