A WELL-known fashion and sportswear shop will be opening in Warrington town centre.

Foot Asylum is taking on a 5,000 sq ft unit at Golden Square.

It will be joining other exciting additions to the mall including B&M, which is set to open at the end of the month, and Kenji which is doubling the size of its current store.

It comes as IM Group Services, the owners of the shopping centre, close in on several local and national operators to add to the mall before Christmas.

Golden Square’s centre director Ian Cox said: “We are thrilled to welcome the latest additions to Golden Square.

“These new retailers not only enhance our shopping experience but also reflect the commitment to offering a diverse retail mix for our visitors.

“It's an exciting time for Golden Square with more to come before Christmas and we look forward to seeing our shoppers enjoy these fantastic new stores."

IM Group Services say the expansion is a testament to its ‘ongoing dedication’ to keep Warrington one step ahead of its neighbouring towns in what has been a challenging few years for retail.
