Budget retailer Poundland has revealed plans to open a new store in Mold.View Post ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The company is set to open up in the former Co-op store in the town centre, which forms part of the Ambrose Lloyd Centre. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

It follows a planning application being submitted to Flintshire Council seeking permission to install illuminated signs for the new store. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The Co-op store, which covers approximately 20,000 square feet, closed its doors for the final time in September 2018 after what the company described as a “difficult decision”. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Announcing the new opening, a spokesman for Poundland said: “Poundland is looking forward to opening a new store in the Ambrose Lloyd Centre in Mold. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We’ll be offering shoppers our amazing value with an extensive range of everyday items, plus our PEP&CO family fashion and chilled and frozen food. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

“We’ll announce more details in the next few weeks.” ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The development follows permission being granted earlier this month to turn the first floor of the property into apartments. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

Approval for nine flats was given by planning officers with the former offices on Wrexham Street having stood empty for a number of years. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

London and Cambridge Properties Limited said the scheme would deliver improvements to the area. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​

The new Poundland store will be based next to the largest car park in Mold which has 450 spaces. ‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​‍‌​‌‌‌​‌​
