A thing of beauty!

The new shop front has now been installed and is being finished this week. It will be painted in its true colours of cream and jade later in February. We are very pleased with it! Meanwhile a massive amount of work is being done behind those boards, with state of the art security, all the wiring, lighting and suspended ceilings, new doors etc.

Goodbye shop front

The hideous old shop front ended up in the skip a few days ago, and not many tears were shed about that! The work inside the shop is proceeding at a frantic pace, with Ant and Mike the electricians working all hours on the electrics, security, and data wiring. The shop will be truly up to 21st century standards! Clive Murrell and his carpenters have been transforming the space inside, and the air conditioning units have been installed. On Monday the new shop front will begin to be fitted, and the interior will soon be ready for the plasterer.
Behind the scenes is very busy with equipment and stock sourcing, setting up contracts and services, advertising for staff, and designing the 'look' of the shop, as well as preparing for the grand opening.
Put the 21st March in your diaries!!
