A national chain is set to open up a brand new store in Oxfordshire next week.

Camping shop Go Outdoors will open in Unit 1 at the Gateway Retail Park in Banbury during the week commencing Monday, April 15.

The store which covers over 13,000 square feet employs a team of 25 people and will provide services including boot and rucksack fitting.

Store manager, Jess Bishop, looks forward to the opening and says: “We are delighted and proud to open our new Go Outdoors store in Banbury.

“We have had a fantastic couple of years at GO, as more and more people are reaping the benefits of the outdoors for their physical and mental well-being, and this new store is the outcome of that success.

“We’re looking forward to offering more customers our unbeatable range of outdoor clothing, footwear and equipment, whilst also supporting our local community and offering jobs in Oxfordshire.”

The new store will stock a wide range of brands such as Rab, OEX and Berghaus as well as a range of footwear, camping equipment, outdoor clothing and equipment for every activity. 

Go Outdoors Banbury also will include free parking for customers which lasts up to four hours.

To celebrate the new store and in time for the camping season, the new Banbury store will offer an extra 15 per cent discount from April 23 to May 6.
