Virgin Media To Triple UK Retail Stores
Broadband, digital TV and telephone provider Virgin Media has announced it is planning to triple the number of its UK retail stores within the next 12 months.
The move from 27 to 70 stores is expected to help new and existing customers with any questions they may have, aswell as providing information and demonstrations of Virgin Media’s exciting range of broadband, telephony and digital TV products.
The Virgin Media Managing Director of Consumer Retail, Peter Taddeo said, “Families up and down the country have made our broadband, TV and mobile services central to their entertainment needs. This expansion will reinforce Virgin Media’s presence at the heart of communities across the UK and provide a valuable contact point for existing and potential customers.”
Not only will the expansion benefit Virgin Media, it will also help out local economies too. Each new store will create a number of new jobs and new staff will receive a few months of intensive training – encouraging news for a country that is dealing with a recession.
Along with retail stores, there will also be new “retail lite” stores introduced. These will basically be shops without any walls, with staff showcasing Virgin Media’s quad play offering of broadband, phone, mobile and TV services.
The Chief Executive Officer of Virgin Media, Neil Berkett, said, “By increasing our high street presence, we’ll be able to drive further growth whilst communicating the benefits of Virgin Media’s products in a way that makes sense for consumers.”
