WILKO will re-open at The Dolphin shopping centre in Poole next week.

The new concept store will open with a ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, August 16.

Prizes and goody bags will be on offer for the first 50 shoppers in the queue, with some of the brand’s top-rated products up for grabs.

Wilko closed the store on October 3 last year, before announcing it would be revamped and re-opened.

The new 23.5K square feet store will offer customers ‘all the essentials’, as well as an Iceland concession.

Customers will also be able to browse and order from the 100,000 items available via the re-launched wilko.com using self-service terminals for home delivery.

The Poole site is one of the brand’s new concept stores and is the latest confirmed store opening in the continued roll-out of further launches, which have previously included Exeter, Luton, Plymouth St Albans and Rotherham.
