Two shops opened yesterday in Abingdon. At Fairacres the final unit has been taken by Home Store and More.
A bit of history… Back in May 2010 Mays Properties, who run the retail park, gave up their plans for Aldi to take over the unit. There had been worries of the effect on the town centre, and Mays who are very supportive of the town centre decided not to continue when both town centre businesses and local councils were against.
Spar also opened on the High Street yesterday. More of them anon when they are settled in and ready to fanfare their arrival.

Hey there! Quick question that’s totally off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My blog looks weird when browsing from my iphone 4. I’m trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to fix this issue. If you have any recommendations, please share. Thanks!
Well, Home Store & More didn’t last long. They’re closing down and have been told to be out by end of Feb. Talking to the staff, the unit will be empty when they leave, no-one else is currently planned to replace them.
I did wonder how three stores from the same group (Argos, Homebase, HS&M) could co-exist on the same site, seems a bit overkill, and clearly something had to give.
My mum currently works there and all the staff are gutted that it’s closing. Can’t understand why Beales is there. They are far more expensive then HS&M ever were and are selling the same things. Argos are not doing very well either.
Abingdon needs a serious wake up call.
