The huge new store preparing to open at Monks Cross is creating 50 new jobs.

Discount retailer B&M has taken over the old Poundworld, Hobbycraft, and Hays Travel units, which provides a combined space of 23,934 sq ft.

A store spokesperson said: “It will undergo a comprehensive internal and external refurbishment programme before officially opening its doors at 8am on Wednesday 18 October.

“Customers can expect to find a wide variety of branded groceries for the best possible price including a range of food, drink, and pet food.

“There will also be a fantastic selection of quality health and beauty products, homeware, electricals, DIY essentials, toys, games, gifts and plenty more to explore.”

It will also have a garden centre taking up about a third of the floorspace, and selling hundreds of plant varieties and gardening items.

“We’re feeling extremely positive about the creation of more jobs for local people, and we hope customers are going to be delighted with their new store,” the spokesperson added.

“We are all really excited to get the doors open and welcome our new customers through the door.”
