A New Home for Toys in Warrington
Ever since the closure of Toys R Us in Warrington, families have felt a toy-shaped void in their shopping adventures. But fret not, Warrington toy enthusiasts! A new player has entered the arena, and its name is Smyths. Nestled comfortably in the JunctionNINE retail park on Winwick Road, Smyths is all set to wow children and adults alike with a treasure trove of toys.
What makes this even more exciting is that the toy retailer has committed to a 10-year lease for a sprawling 14,500 sq ft unit. Interestingly, this expansive space was once occupied by Halfords. Now, the aisles that once showcased automotive accessories will be filled with giggles, joy, and the magic of toys.
The Buzz Around Smyths’ Opening
Ahead of its public opening, Dave Gillespie, a revered photographer from Warrington Guardian, was granted exclusive access for a sneak peek. The images he captured showcase an exciting array of toys, games, and entertainment products, promising a fun-filled experience for all its visitors.
For many Warrington residents, the opening of Smyths in their vicinity is a massive relief. Earlier, the closest Smyths store was located in St Helens, which meant additional travel for a toy-shopping spree. Now, it’s right in their backyard!
