Next is understood to be opening up an outlet store at Fforestfach Retail Park in Swansea. It's thought the high street clothing chain will open inside the unit left vacant by River Island.
Wales Online has been told the store will officially open its doors on Monday, April 17, at 10am, and sell clearance items including womenswear, menswear, children's wear, home and branded clothing. It's expected to create around 28 new permanent jobs, with plans to recruit additional temporary staff.
The unit is expected to be refitted at the beginning of April ahead of the grand opening. It will operate between 9am and 8pm from Monday to Friday, 9am until 7pm on Saturdays and 10am until 4pm on Sundays. Get Swansea stories straight to your inbox with our newsletter.
