First look inside Bispham's new B&M store - as Aldi's new neighbour opens its doors today

Workers at the Fylde coast’s newest branch of discount retailer B&M opened up early today in Bispham so bargain hunters queuing in the rain outside could get inside and get dry.

Shoppers stood outside the new store, off Holyoake Avenue in Bispham, before the doors were opened following a ribbon-cutting ceremony at around 8.15am – around 45 minutes earlier than expected.

The grand opening came after neighbouring shop, the supermarket Aldi, opened in the former B&Q and Poundstretcher unit in late September following months of extensive building work.

Pets at Home also has a base at the site.

“We’re thrilled to open a brand new store in Bispham and create even more jobs for local people,” B&M said.

“We hope everyone is delighted with their new store and we can’t wait to welcome everyone through the doors.”
