After a much anticipated wait, last Friday 14th of July saw the opening of The Range in the Redditch Kingfisher Shopping Centre.
The store was opened by the mayor of Redditch, councillor Jenny Wheeler and accompanied by Kingfisher manager Ken Williams alongside The Range CEO, Nigel Oddy. Queues formed outside the store in the hopes of receiving goodie bags available for the first 50 visitors. The store, which can be found in the former BHS location is an exciting new addition to the shopping centre, that promises to bring sustainable business as well as creating numerous jobs for local Redditch residents.
