A once-bustling retail space in Nottingham's city center is about to spring back to life! The former Wilko store, which has been vacant since the autumn of 2023, will soon be home to a brand new department store. But here's the exciting part: the new tenant is none other than Boyes, a beloved Yorkshire-based retailer, marking its 12th branch in Nottinghamshire!
The store opening date has been set for Friday, February 27th, at 8:30 am, and shoppers can expect a wide array of products. Boyes boasts an impressive inventory, from fishing tackle and thermal wear to Warhammer toys and Calpol. And this is where it gets intriguing: the company prides itself on offering 'virtually everything for the home and family' at bargain prices.
This new development is a breath of fresh air for the city's retail scene, especially after the Wilko store's closure. The building has been given a complete makeover, ready to welcome customers once again. With Boyes' reputation for quality goods and diverse product lines, it's no surprise that Nottingham residents are eagerly awaiting the grand opening.
And this isn't the first time Boyes has breathed new life into a former Wilko store. In November 2024, the Beeston Wilko also transformed into a Boyes department store, joining other successful branches in Arnold, Bingham, Eastwood, and more.
So, are you ready to explore the new Boyes store and discover hidden gems? The countdown to the grand opening has begun, and Nottingham shoppers are in for a treat! But will this new addition live up to the hype? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
