Poundland to open 25 new stores this year
Poundland is to open 25 new or relocated stores by the end of the year as part of its expansion plans.
The discounter will launch a first tranche of stores between August and September with the rest following by the year-end.
Sites will include places like Aberdeen, Broadstairs, Canterbury and Sutton Coldfield with shops situated mostly on high streets, retail parks and in local neighbourhoods.
Poundland has also revealed that it is on track to roll out its chilled and frozen food offering to 350 stores and said it will be cutting prices on 1,000 items across the DIY, gardening, kitchenware, homeware and stationery categories.
Tim Bettley, commercial director at Poundland, said: “We’re acutely aware of how important value for money is right now for our customers – and that’s why whether it’s across grocery, clothing or homewares, we’re doubling down on our promise of amazing value.”
