Ribbon Cut For New Store At Middleton Grange Shopping Centre

A new store has opened its doors at a major town centre shopping complex.

The ribbon was cut for modern discount outlet OneBeyond, in Middleton Grange Shopping Centre, Hartlepool, on Wednesday morning (12 July).

OneBeyond opened its first store in 2019 and is one of the UK’s fastest-growing value retailers operating over 100 stores nationwide.

Darron Hitchcock, Area Manager at OneBeyond, said: “We are really excited to be the latest addition to Middleton Shopping Centre – and we look forward to seeing customers, new and old in the days and weeks ahead.”

Middleton Grange Shopping Centre is owned by the Hartlepool Development Corporation – which is looking to secure its financial future and transform the key town centre site in the years to come.

The new OneBeyond store sits in the unit previously occupied by River Island.

Nik McDonald, Manager at Middleton Grange Shopping Centre, said: “I’m delighted to see OneBeyond open its doors.

“Attracting growing national retailers shows the confidence businesses have in both the centre and Hartlepool.

“We wish the team every success and look forward to working with them and seeing shoppers enjoy everything the new store has to offer.”

Pamela Hargreaves, Chair of Hartlepool Development Corporation, added: “It’s fantastic to see another new store opening at Middleton Grange, creating new jobs for local people and bringing fresh investment to our town.

“We’re working hard to attract new businesses and to create a town centre Hartlepool can be proud of. This is another positive step forward for our town as exciting plans continue to develop.”
