FURNITURE retailer JYSK has confirmed that its Ellesmere Port store will reopen this week.

The store on Westminster Retail Park is initially operating a click and collect service from today before fully reopening its doors to customers on Wednesday, May 27.

The global Scandinavian furniture brand says customers can 'expect to find fully covid-secure and compliant measures in place' at its Ellesmere Port store.

Some of the retailer's stores have already been operating a click and collect service and will reopen fully from today.

JYSK Country Manager David Ashton said: "Whilst our store teams were already working in the background to prepare our stores for a successful and compliant reopening, we re-introduced our Click & Collect services and quickly hit the first 1,000 orders across the UK – with unprecedented demand.

"It is vital as a retailer and employer that we ensure our teams and customers feel they can trust us to still be able provide a great shopping experience whilst looking after their best interests, because all the signs show us that our customers are missing JYSK.

“We will be opening in a phased approach because it allows for successful execution – and to put it simply, get it right for our employees and customers.

"It has been a challenging time for all retailers in the UK and across the world, so we really look forward to welcoming back regular, and new customers over the coming days, weeks and months.

"So I say, welcome back to JYSK, even if it is from a little further away than before."

The news comes as JYSK revealed another new store opening later this year at Liverpool’s Hunts Cross Retail Park.
