One of the UK’s biggest discount retailers will open the doors of its new Bordon branch this weekend in a brilliant and marvellous boost for the town.

This Saturday is a big one for bargain hunters as B&M will officially open their Forest Centre store at 8am.

The 12,000sq/ft unit previously occupied by Wilkos has undergone a “comprehensive internal and external refurbishment programme” over the last two months.

Its shelves are now being filled with shoppers being told to expect a range of products from food, drink and pet items to homeware, electricals, DIY essentials and more in boost for The Forest Centre and the local jobs market.

“We’re feeling extremely positive about the creation of more jobs for local people, and we hope customers are doing to be delighted with their new store,” said a spokesperson for B&M.

“We are all really excited to get the doors open and welcome new customers through the door.”
