Truro celebrates new Screwfix store opening

Screwfix is celebrating with its most recent store opening its doors on Newham Road which officially opened on Thursday 3rd November. The store had a successful launch weekend with hundreds of customers eager to get their hands on a bargain.

 

The Truro Screwfix store is part of the company’s nationwide store expansion plan, which saw the retailer open 60 new UK stores in 2015. The company uses its own innovative retail model, which aims to provide its customers with outstanding service, together with value and convenience. Already 90% of the UK population is within a 30 minute drive of a Screwfix store.

 

Screwfix’s Truro Store Manager Dean Gerrans said: “We chose to open a new store in Truro because it’s a growing city with a great trade presence. Many of our customers already shopped with us at our Penryn and Redruth stores and are delighted to see us here, as they no longer have to travel so far.”

 

“Our celebration period, which ran from Thursday 3rd November and throughout the weekend until Sunday 6th November attracted hundreds of customers and we are looking forward to welcoming many more local people over the coming months. We have received fantastic support from the local community, who have all shown a keen interest in the store. It has been extremely exciting that we have already attracted repeat business and we are all enjoying getting to know new customers.”

 

Another aspect of Screwfix’s nationwide stores initiative is that the company is looking to become actively involved with local charities through its own registered charity arm The Screwfix Foundation, which supports local charities and community projects with donations for projects involving fixing, repairing or maintaining buildings.  Screwfix staff get directly involved in helping community projects and host charity fundraising events within the stores.

 

Local registered charities are welcome to apply for funding from The Screwfix Foundation and can visit Truro Screwfix branch to pick up a Screwfix Foundation Leaflet for more information. Alternatively they can download an application form from www.screwfixfoundation.com
