BROMSGROVE’s high street is being boosted by the return of a new Superdrug store, just in time for any last-minute Christmas shopping.

The health and beauty giant, which left the town in June 2010, will open its new branch on High Street on Friday, December 16 – just a week before Christmas.

A total of 18 jobs have been created at the store, which will offer a range of exclusive and own-brand products as well as a Brow & Lash Bar for threaded eyebrows.

Cindy Moore, Superdrug Bromsgrove Store Manager, said: "We’re delighted to be back in the town again and look forward to welcoming new customers to the store.

"The store will offer an array of gifts, cosmetics and essentials just in time for Christmas."

The retailer, which will be located at its previous address of 58-60 High Street, will open 8.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
