Mountain Warehouse open new standalone store at Wyevale Woodbridge
Mountain Warehouse, one of the UK’s leading camping specialists, has opened a new standalone store within a purpose built retail building at Wyevale Woodbridge Garden Centre.
The company has installed similar stores into outlets operated by The Garden Centre Group. Developments at Andover Garden Centre and Woodlands Nurseries have also proved successful, both of which were also 'Let from plan' and erected with the sole purpose of bringing complementary retailers to the site.
The Woodbridge store is located off the garden centre car park, visible as you enter the main garden centre entrance found at the bottom of the Plantaria.
There is a growing trend within garden centres to erect purpose-built retail units on their premises as retailers see the advantages of the free parking, day out destination customer experience and affluent core customer base.
Commenting on the completed store, Keith McIntyre (First Franchise MD) said: “Working with both landlord and tenant on this site was an excellent project to be involved in.
"The use of purpose-built bespoke units for other retailers represents the way forward for the development of all garden centres. Mountain Warehouse have been behind the project since we put forward the plan and the finish of both the unit and fit is superb.
"We look forward to developing more of these purpose-built units with garden centres as it is an initiative applicable to all.”
