B&M Sets up Shop in Owlcotes Shopping Centre

B&M continued its expansion this morning by setting up shop in Owlcotes Shopping Centre in Yorkshire.

The addition to B&M's portfolio in the region comes as a huge boost to the local economy, creating 55 jobs for people from the area.

Visitors to the store in Pudsey will be able to browse a wide range of branded and own label goods, including toys, groceries, health & beauty and pet ranges.

As part of the opening celebrations, B&M employees invited local charity, Leeds Children's Hospital Appeal, to be their VIP for the day.

The team aim to make every child’s stay in hospital a happier one. They rely on donations to help them provide a variety of facilities designed to ease the trauma often experienced by children when visiting and being treated at Leeds Children’s Hospital.

They were handed £250 worth of vouchers to spend in-store as a thank you for their hard work in the community, and for opening the new store.

The store manager, Geoff Skelton, said: “The team from Leeds Children’s Hospital Appeal really stood out for us as they go the extra mile for local community, we wanted to give them some VIP treatment as a thank you for all the hard work they do.

“We hope that our donation can help them to continue the great work they do.”

He also commented: “The new team have been working really hard to get the store ready for opening day and we can’t wait to get the doors open next Thursday and show customers their brand new B&M Owlcotes.”
