Belfast bargain hunters can look forward to a new shopping experience from today (Friday, March 24) when a "bigger and better" B&M store opens in the city. The budget retailer, which competes with the likes of Home Bargains and Wilko, recently announced further store closures in the UK, including its store in Boucher Road, Belfast, — but it is opening a fresh store on a new site along the same road.
The chain says the new store, which will be on the site previously occupied by DW Sports & Fitness, will offer a wider range of branded products. The current store in Boucher Road will close on Sunday, March 26, along with the chain's shop in Queens Drive Retail Park, Kilmarnock, as the company continues to reshape its business. All other Belfast stores will remain open.
B&M said in a website statement: "Your B&M Belfast - Boucher Road store is moving from its current location at Unit 20 Boucher Retail Park, to its new home at Unit 7, 24 Boucher Road, BT12 6HR (former DW Sports & Fitness).
