Decathlon is relocating its Bolton store from the town centre to Middlebrook, next to the University of Bolton Stadium. The move, the company says, will ‘inject millions into the local economy’.
The new store will open on Thursday, April 14 — with the existing site shutting down on Friday, April 8, to facilitate the move. The new space will cover 1,900sqm (20,451sq ft), and will feature a bigger selection of products and employ 20 percent more staff.
“This is a really exciting moment for us, and one that has been in the pipeline for quite a while,” Ross Farrington, who heads up the company’s operations in the North of England, said. “Our new store will offer an unrivalled shopping experience for customers, with a broader range of sports products and services in a more accessible format.
