Home Bargains has announced that it will be opening in-store bakeries to more than 64 of its UK stores as it rolls out its freshly baked goods at sites across the country. The budget high street retailer has already successfully introduced bakeries in stores nationwide in locations including Darlington, Basingstoke and Merthyr, and now will add another 20 bakeries at stores across the UK over the next 12 months.
Shoppers here in Greater Manchester will be pleased to know that bakeries will be opening at Home Bargain sites in Oldham, Walkden and Bolton in the coming months. While the retailer has not confirmed which of the three Oldham sites will have a bakery, a job advert for the Market Place store asked for store members for a cafe and bakery. Meanwhile, the Home Bargains in Walkden is in the Salford town's retail park, and the Bolton site is at Middlebrook Retail & Leisure in Horwich.
A spokesperson for Home Bargains said: “In recent years the market for fresh baked good in the UK has grown significantly and the bakeries we have introduced at stores nationwide have allowed customers to enjoy our competitively priced fresh bakery range. We are looking forward to introducing more bakeries in stores as we roll out our fresh bakery range for customers across the UK to enjoy.”
