We previously had a store there around 10 years earlier, and our return not only demonstrates that our business is a success, but also shows that we’re serious about bucking the trend and breathing new life into high streets across the UK.Multichannel convenienceWe’re one of the few value retailers with a full featured online store that helps our customers to shop how they want, when they want, 7 days a week.Our website offers many exclusive products that are not available on the high street.
