Those who follow Shrewsbury Town Football Club will be interested to know,

Shrews to unveil new signing – club shop to open in Darwin Centre

 

Shrewsbury Town’s latest signing is not a player but a new club store, right in the heart of the town at the busy Darwin Shopping Centre.

The signing was announced this week and the shop will open on October 1 to give the Shrews a real high street and town centre presence.

The unit, on the Middle Level, is now undergoing a rapid overhaul with a view to being officially opened at the beginning of October when fans will be able to buy home match tickets for the as well as club shirts and other merchandise.

Kevin Lockwood, Manager of the Darwin, Pride Hill and Riverside Shopping Centres, said: “Football clubs are at the heart of their communities and that is especially true of clubs like Shrewsbury Town.

The tenancy will last an initial three-month trial period.  At present people in Shropshire have to go somewhat off the beaten track to buy merchandise, book tickets or arrange a ground tour, and the new shop will make it easier for them to do all of this by having a presence in town.  The easier we can make it for all concerned, the better it should be.
