Multi-channel trade retailer Screwfix is to officially open its first store in Ferndown on 8th October on Ferndown Industrial Estate. The new branch will create an additional 14 jobs and is part of the company’s ongoing expansion plans.
Screwfix’s new Ferndown Store Manager, Russ Austin is proud of the contribution the new store has made to employment figures in the region. “We’ve created 14 brand new vacancies and have employed local people from around the Ferndown area. Our new team includes people of all ages and levels of experience, but the most important requirement is that they have the right attitude and can offer superb customer service. Everyone here is really looking forward to the store opening.”
Tradesmen and DIYers are all invited to attend the Ferndown Screwfix opening on Ferndown Industrial Estate, where they can also demonstrate their professional skills in a free-to-enter screw drilling competition. The fastest time wins a 40in smart TV.
