The Original Factory Shop - Campbeltown !

[maxmix]

New thread

Well as we know they are opening soon in the old Woolworths building and I must say in the other Factory shops I have been to the range and pricing is great.... So with the size of Woolworths old building we are going to be in for a treat....

A great range and slightly different from Tesco and the Coop....

Mens and Womens clothing, Boots Shoes, Kithchenware, Perfumes Toys etc...



Here is a link to there current flyer incase you missed it on the Woolworths topic.... You can browse it from left to right etc also.... (Flashplayer required, which you all will have etc)

Saw the Oban branch on Wednesday. Hope they do a bit more with the windows when they open in the toon. It made the place look cheap and nasty although a wee trip through the shop was quite interesting. The household stuff seems to be very similar to Nickel & Dime but at least there will be somewhere in the town to give a reasonable choice of underwear! Still think it would have been better for teenagers if it had been New Look or Matalan or similar who had taken it over.

It may look the same as N & D's but the quality will be better and at least you will have some comback up to 12 months down the line if you have something faulty....

One good thing is (Although not for me) is the clothing and footwear.... Some choices i'll tell you...

Everything from Padded lumberjack type shirts to a mass of ladies boots... A very large variety of stock...

Good for the punter....

I see from the web cam that the signage is about to change.

Can anyone confirm that the shop will cover two floors of the building? Heard last week that both floors will be open for shoppers.

[Mr.Everready]

There's an open staircase against the back wall ( where the cd's were ) so I'd assume that they will be using both floors.

Never seen a factory shop anywhere with an upstairs, very large area up there and loads of room on the 2nd floor...

But I would have thought the 1st floor would have been used for storage.... We will soon see....

Double threads going on here Admin. Anyway, glad the old Woolies is being opened back up as The Factory Shop and creating jobs. Passed through Rutherglen on Sunday and the old Woolies has opened up as a sort of 'Pound Shop'

Good to hear Tesco is going to create 100+ jobs. Get the Royal and the Ferry going and things may take a turn for the better.

Hey Skernish! Less of the Matalan being for teenagers , its a great shop. We could do with one on the old Tesco site .

I don't think the upstairs will be open to the public unless there's a lift. Is that not the new law for people with a disability?

I'm sure there is a lift in the building.

Your correct, there is a lift and it opened to the back of the building also for deliveries.
