SPORTY shoppers have a new place to go in Worcester city centre with the opening of DW Sports Fitness.
The new shop has opened in the High Street premesis that used to house JJB Sports, which closed after its parent chain went into administration last year.
The new store employs about 20 people, some of whom worked in the old JJB shop.
Company owner Dave Whelan said: ?It is part of our continuous strategy to open good value sports stores with fantastic products for all sport and fitness enthusiasts.
?We strive to offer a fantastic range of sporting clothing and equipment.
?It is our intention to make the DW Sports Store Worcester one of our top retail stores.?
The DW Sports chain was set up in 2009 after Mr Whelan, who is also the chairman of Wigan Athletic Football Club, bought 52 JJB Fitness lubs and adjoining sports stores.
The Worcester store is the company?s sixth sole retail store and it takes the overall number of premises to 72.
