We're at Fairham for the new opening of the Poundland store.
00:03
Tell me about why you've moved premises
00:04
from just up the road here.
00:06
- So, better premises, bigger offer,
00:09
much broader scope, better building.
00:12
You know, we've got plenty of opportunities
00:14
to extend the range and show customers what we're all about.
00:17
- There's also the fact that as a company,
00:19
we've taken on over 70 of these sites,
00:21
so we've managed to reinvest back into the community,
00:24
open up stores that were closed down
00:25
and the products remained redundant.
00:27
And we've also managed to take on all the products
00:29
that remained redundant in the store as well.
00:30
So we've invested back in the community.
00:32
- So the guys who are working here for Wilkinsons
00:34
are now employed by you?
00:35
- Yes.
00:35
- Fantastic.
00:36
And you mentioned you extended your range.
00:37
What can we expect to see in this store
00:39
that you haven't had previously?
00:40
- We've got clothing in here,
00:41
we've got a far bigger range on the Poundland core products
00:45
than what we have around the corner.
00:47
And then coming in the new year,
00:48
we'll have fresh food and frozen food coming in as well.
00:51
- Fantastic.
00:52
Well, there's an eager queue at nine o'clock
00:53
on a rainy morning, so it looks good
00:55
and wish you all the best.
00:56
Thank you very much.
00:57
- Thank you very much.
