Wilko to Relocate in Ashton-Under-Lyne
WILKO, one of Britain’s best loved value home and garden retailers, has signed a lease for a new store at Tameside One.
The new 19,000 Sq ft store is due to open in July 2019, with the existing wilko store at Ashton-under-Lyne Arcade Shopping Centre closing its doors on 22nd June.
Team members from the existing store will be joining the new wilko, which is expected to generate fifteen new jobs within the local area.
Craig McGregor, Head of Retail said: “We are delighted to have signed the lease at Tameside One and can’t wait to open our doors in July.
“We’ve loved serving hard-working families in Ashton-under-Lyne and are looking forward to welcoming them to our brand-new store.
“The new store is in a fantastic location with great transport links, and we’re sure it will become the go-to place for locals looking to stock up on products for their homes and gardens for years to come.”
Customers can still shop the great range of products at wilko.com.
Founded in 1930 as Wilkinson Stores by J K Wilkinson, wilko is one of the UK’s largest and best-loved retailers.
