New Store Opening
Angling Direct plc (AIM: ANG.L), the UK's largest and fastest
growing fishing tackle and equipment retailer, is pleased to
announce that it opened a new store in Swinton, Greater Manchester,
on Saturday 21 December 2019. The latest store opening brings the
total number of Angling Direct stores across the UK to 34, with ten
new stores added this year, and further strengthens Angling
Direct's presence across the UK.
The new store, a former fishing tackle outlet, is located on
Rutland Street, Swinton, and has been completely renovated
throughout to provide a much better experience for Angling Direct's
customers.
The store is ideally situated within a popular fishing area with
a large and enthusiastic angling community and is surrounded by
lakes and other river venues such as the River Irwell, the Ribble,
and the Bridgewater Canal. As with all Angling Direct stores, it
caters for a wide range of angling disciplines, whilst also
providing excellent service from local and knowledgeable staff. The
new store is creating four full-time positions and one part-time
position.
Angling Direct's Chief Executive Officer, Darren Bailey,
commented:
"We are excited to have opened our latest store in Swinton which
increases our customer reach in the Greater Manchester region. The
new store offers products for all disciplines in this very
enthusiastic angling community.
"As we continue to cater for all angling disciplines throughout
the UK with a new and modern approach towards fishing retail, we
remain focused on strategically expanding our store footprint, as
well as enhancing our online offering in terms of products,
experience and education in order to help raise the profile of
angling."
