Staggering size of supersized B&M store and garden centre unveiled ahead of grand opening

Fresh pictures show the staggering size of Ayrshire's newest discount store.

B&M's new shop will swing open its doors for the first time next weekend.

The Kilmarnock superstore will open to the public on Saturday, February 4 at 9am.

The giant triple-sized shop at Glencairn Retail Park has been taking shape ever since planning permission was granted around a year ago.

Pictures from the retail park show the true scale of the 24,461sq. ft. mega shop.

Huge signs for the megastore have been put up and staff are currently stacking the shelves ahead of the grand opening.

The discount retailer will be in good company at the retail park with rivals Poundland next door and the rest of the shopping centre featuring Dunelm, Food Warehouse, TK Maxx, Halfords and Greggs.

Pound Stretcher, DW Sports and Brantano Footwear all used to occupy the site B&M has taken charge of.

We told you earlier this week that the current B&M store is set to close.

Bosses wanted to close the Queen's Drive Retail Park outlet this weekend but have since extended the shop's closing date to March 26 - more than two months away.
