More Argos stores in Sainsbury's by Christmas
Published: 5 September 2016
Sainsbury's is to more than double the number of Argos outlets in its supermarkets by Christmas and introduce home furnishings retailer Habitat into its stores for the first time, reports the Belfast Telegraph.
The move, which follows the grocery giant's newly completed £1.4 billion takeover of Argos and Habitat owner Home Retail Group, will see more than 90,000 products under one roof available to customers.
The number of Argos concessions will increase from 13 to 30 while five mini Habitat stores will be opened within Sainsbury's stores over the coming months.
Chief executive Mike Coupe said: "This is the start of an exciting new phase for Sainsbury's, Argos and Habitat.
"Being able to shop across all three brands under one roof will make our customers' lives even more convenient and offer them incredible choice."
