Jewellers F. Hinds will officially open its Marlowes Shopping Centre, Hemel Hempstead store on Thursday 12th August 2010 at 2.00pm. Located at 1 The Marlowes Shopping Centre, Hemel Hempstead, Herts HP1 1DX (tel. 01442 215680) it is F. Hinds' 110th jewellery store, with the other branches across England and Wales, plus an extensive online shopping website at www.fhinds.co.uk.
Poppy Hinds (5) and Charlie Hinds (3) will together 'cut the ribbon'. Poppy and Charlie are the newest members of the Hinds’ family, and the sixth generation to be involved in the retail jewellery business - mum Sarah Hinds will have to help as both are still practising with scissors. Andrew Hinds (Director, Poppy and Charlie’s father and 5th generation) and Roy Hinds (Chairman, Andrew's father and 4th generation) will also be there for the grand opening.
The new F. Hinds' 1,100sq ft. store has an eye-catching full length shop front on the High Street, with the entrance just inside the threshold of the Centre. Visitors will immediately notice the bright and modern store, with its extensive range of gold, platinum and silver, diamond and gemstone jewellery - a sparkling five metres of windows - plus an unparalleled selection of fourteen watch brands including well known designer names. Managed by Karen Ellis, the store has six locally based and recruited staff.
This is the first F. Hinds store to be fitted by Europa Shopfitting and Interiors also based at Hemel Hempstead and is equipped with new style, deeper display shop counters and environmentally friendly, energy efficient LED lighting. “The store’s new lighting is even better than I expected and is a significant improvement – the diamonds really sparkle and the watch faces are brighter”, comments Andrew Hinds.
F. Hinds has a much envied reputation in the jewellery trade for its knowledgeable, well trained and helpful staff. Shoppers will be delighted with the new store and the service they will receive, whether selecting a diamond engagement ring, or finding the perfect watch. Additionally, F. Hinds also offers other services including jewellery valuations, Cash for Gold with unmatched redemption rates, repairs and watch strap and battery replacements.
Established in 1856, F. Hinds is Britain's leading independent family jewellers and is delighted to open this new and very stylish Hemel Hempstead store.
