At 9am on Saturday 24th October 2026, B&M store colleagues celebrated the opening of their brand-new store at Oaks Shopping Centre in Acton, welcoming customers through the doors for the very first time.
Following a ceremonial ribbon cut to mark the occasion, opening morning celebrations got into full swing, with plenty for the local community to enjoy. A golden voucher was waiting for the very first customer to walk through the doors, while a live DJ brought the tunes and younger shoppers enjoyed the free on-site face painting. Locals also had the change to Spin to Win exciting prizes from visiting big brands, making this a celebration to remember in the community.
The B&M Acton Store Manager said:
“We’re really excited to be opening our brand-new Acton store and can’t wait to welcome customers through the doors for the first time. The team have been working incredible hard to get everything ready, and we’re looking forward to becoming part of the local community.”
The much-anticipated new discount store brings big-name brands, exciting ranges, and fantastic value to the local community, while providing a welcome boost to the local economy with the creation of 50 new jobs.
Previously occupied by Poundland, the unit now inhabited by B&M underwent a comprehensive internal and external refurbishment ahead of the official opening, transforming the space into a 8,626sqft. B&M store.
Designed to offer customers a bright, modern, and easy to navigate shopping experience, B&M Acton features clear product displays alongside self-checkout tills, giving shoppers greater flexibility and convenience when completing their shop.
Alongside B&M’s fresh new look and long-awaited self-checkout tills, the store is also thrilled to introduce its upgraded frozen food department, bringing even more choice to B&M’s grocery range and making it easier for customers to pick up more of their everyday essentials in one place.
