Homebase to open new small format stores
10 February, 2021 | by Angela Beevers
Home and garden retailer Homebase has unveiled plans to open a series of new small format stores in Walton-on-Thames this spring.
The retailer will be upgrading its existing Bathstore showroom in the town’s New Zealand Avenue to enable it to also feature Homebase’s kitchen range. The move follows a successful launch of the format in Guildford.
Meanwhile, the adjacent unit next door will be transformed into a Decorate by Homebase shop following openings of the format in Cheadle and Sutton. The site will also house Homebase’s first pop-up store.
Founded in 1979, Homebase operates 151 stores and 15 standalone Bathstore stores across the UK and Ireland.
