Wilko has officially reopened its Poole store this morning, after a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Mayor of Poole.
Excited patrons started queuing at 6.45am in anticipation of the grand opening at 9am, hoping to be the first of 50 customers who would receive a free goody bag.
Today’s grand opening event features a ‘spin to win’ prize wheel and a meet-and-greet with Olivia, the official mascot of Dulux.
The newly refurbished store features all the old Wilko products we’ve missed, as well as a brand-new Iceland frozen foods section.
John Grinnell, Centre Manager for The Dolphin said, “We’re looking forward to welcoming Wilko back to The Dolphin.
"The reopening will bring back much-loved Wilko-brand homewares, and the introduction of Iceland products in-store will add an extra level of convenience for Poole shoppers.”
The new Wilko store will be open from 8.30am to 6pm Monday to Saturday, and from 10.30am to 4.30pm on Sundays.
