Third store in Britain

Clas Ohlson, a Swedish DIY retail group based in Insjön, is planning to open a third store in Britain this coming November. The location is in Kingston-upon-Thames, to the south-west of London, and the store is expected to be around 1 900 m² in size. This means the company will then have 117 stores operating in four countries (Sweden 55, Norway 43, Finland 16 and Britain 3) with the inclusion of the nine projects currently under construction. Up to eight new outlets are expected to open in Britain over the next few years.
