In our latest Bunnings Warehouse news article, we take a look at their recent big announcement that they plan to open over 100 new stores across the UK in the next five to eight years. According to Property Week, Bunnings Warehouse will also be trialling a number of smaller-format stores over the coming years, similar to some of their competitors.
“We would love to have a network of 80,000 sq ft stores, but the reality is not like that,” Bunnings UK managing director Peter Davis said.
“We will be opening Bunnings stores before Christmas to test how that smaller format will work in the UK.
“We are happy to buy property and turn it over as we go through the investment cycle. Our investment (in the UK) in future is going to be quite big.
“We will continue our test, learn and improve approach through our Bunnings pilot store programme in the UK and Ireland, which includes many varied formats, including smaller stores and larger warehouses.”
