Peterlee opticians makes five-figure investment to store refit as shop gets makeover

A PETERLEE opticians has invested £55,000 in a store refit, welcoming customers back with a fresh look and improved services.
The store, based in the Castle Dene Shopping Centre, is locally owned and run by the director team of Mark Huddart and Joanne Gallagher, and specialises in hearing care as well as eye health.
Specsavers Peterlee was closed temporarily as it underwent a five-figure makeover.
Works included a fresh lick of paint for the entire shop area, new illuminated frame bars for displaying glasses, and a rejig of the store layout to ensure a fresher, sleeker look and more space for customers to peruse. There were also upgrades made to the staff room area.

The store, which has been open for 30 years, is ready for the busy half term period as it welcomes customers back with its new look.
Joanne Gallagher, retail director at Specsavers Peterlee, says: ‘We are delighted to have invested this money back into our store to optimise the experience for customers.
‘It also creates a better and brighter environment for our valued colleagues to be proud of as they continue to deliver for the community of Peterlee.
‘We are over the moon with our new look and welcomed back customers with some cakes and nosecco.’
