Open seven days a week from 7am Monday to Friday, the store also provides a convenient, Click & Collect service that is available at all Screwfix locations. Using this service, customers can order their goods online or over the phone and pick them up from a store in as little as one minute.
Screwfix’s Wigston Store Manager, Bhav Mandalia said: “We chose to open a new store in Wigston to better meet the needs of the local tradespeople. Many of our new customers previously shopped at our Freemans Common, or Ulverston Road branches in Leicester, so we’re delighted to bring Screwfix even closer to them for greater convenience.
“Our celebration period, which ran from Thursday 31st January and throughout the weekend until Sunday 3rd February 2019, attracted hundreds of customers. We have received fantastic support from the local community and are looking forward to welcoming and helping more tradespeople and serious DIYers over the coming months.”
