According to the national chain, the shop will be one of the biggest stores they have ever opened measuring more than 38,000 square feet.
The shop will offer visitors a range of products, including homeware, health and beauty essentials, sweets, snacks and drinks, as well as fresh and frozen food and a Home Bargains bakery. The company is keen to point out, however, the store will “compliment” the existing shop in St Peter’s Way.
