NEW stores are opening at the newly-built Meteor Retail Park in Christchurch.
The latest finished unit, TK Maxx, will open on Thursday at the shopping park on Somerford Road.
The labels-for-less retailer is set to start trading at 9am, following Bathstore and Matalan, which have opened at the site in the last few weeks.
Aldi, Poundland and Sports Direct are also set to open soon.
Matalan has created 40 new jobs with its new store, which sits on the site of the former Stylesouth store and PC World.
Mike Jeans, retail director for Matalan, said: “We are really excited to have opened the Christchurch site, Mark and the rest of the store team have done a remarkable job of getting it ready in time for the Bank Holiday opening.”
Mark Puckett, store manager, added: “We are really pleased to have finally opened our doors and show the residents of Christchurch the new site. With the great range we have on offer, I am confident that the store will become a local fashion hotspot.”
Sports Direct are set to open on September 15.
