DIY retail chain Screwfix is set to open up to 60 new stores next year as the firm continued its expansion with an acquisition and entered new European markets.
The home improvements brand, founded and headquartered in Somerset, is planning to open its new outlets across the UK and Ireland in the next financial year.
It comes after it completed a record 82 new openings in the 12 months to the end of January, taking its total to around 870. Parent company Kingfisher also opened its first five Screwfix stores in France during the period, and is looking to add as many as 25 more across The Channel.
