November 2009

Another letting done at Bermuda Trade Park where other tenants include Bathstore, Screwfix, Topps Tiles. This now only leaves 2 units remaining where Andrew Pittaway reports: \"there is interest in both of these at present\".

Axminster Tool Centre recently opened its new store on Bermuda Park in Nuneaton. The store, part of Bermuda Trade Centre (just off Hamilton Way) opened on Monday 12 October and is the fourth retail outlet for Axminster Tool Centre. This new outlet is Axminster\'s biggest store yet: 12,000 sq ft of retail space with an enviable range of products. Not only will the store stock the entire catalogue product range, it also has certain products from Festool and Mafell which Axminster will only be selling through the Nuneaton store. The most existing installation at the new store is "Festool World": this shop-in-shop is probably the largest of its kind in the world! Festool World Nuneaton will house the entire Festool range and will cover a space of 1,000 sq ft. Festool World, with its unique display, will show the applications of the tools with a test centre for you to get some hands-on experience. In addition to this, a representative from Festool will be visiting the store every week to deliver expert advice. Warwickshire Investment Partnership have supported Axminster during their expansion programme by providing employee relocation and recruitment support. Axminster have recruited 3 new staff for the new store and plan to recruit additional staff in the future. Ian Styles, Managing Director of Axminster Tool Centre said, "The Nuneaton store is a new and existing venture for the company. We looked at several locations for our fourth store, but Nuneaton\'s excellent transport links and accessiblity made it the perfect location". For more information, please visit www.axminster.co.uk
