A BRAND NEW independent womenswear shop is to open inside a Hinckley shopping centre – and it marks the newest retailer to join the complex in one year.

The former Roman women’s clothes shop inside of the Britannia Shopping Centre, next door to the side of New Look, has sat empty for years, but has since found a taker.

‘Snap’ is the new name taking the space on – and they have made their presence known by placing storefront signage atop the unit today (Tuesday, 16 May).

They have one existing branch, which is located inside of the Cannock Shopping Centre in Cannock Chase, Staffordshire.

Passers-by had first noticed that the unit had a new lease of life once again just yesterday (15 May), when clothing racks and shelves had started to be installed.

The centre manager for the Britannia Shopping Centre confirmed that the business were on the way, but did not provide any further details such as an opening date.

The announcement of Snap coming to the centre means that they are the first business to open up inside of the Britannia Centre in a year.

The last business to set up shop inside was the Bri-Vie’s card shop, housed inside the former Card Factory, who joined the complex back in late December last year.
