Majestic Wine partners with The Range for new Plymouth opening

The wine retailer opened the doors to the 4,400 sq ft shop on the ground floor of The Rangeโ€™s head office in Derriford

Majestic Wine has partnered with The Range to launch its first store in Plymouth.ย 

The wine retailer opened the doors to the 4,400 sq ft shop on the ground floor of The Rangeโ€™s head office in Derriford, after signing a deal to sublet space within the building.ย 

The store is located on a retail park currently under development, which is already home to Aldi, Pets Corner, Costa Coffee and PureGym, with M&S Food opening next week.ย 

The store stocks Majesticโ€™s full range of more than 1,200 wines โ€“ including a dedicated area for 72 Fine Wines โ€“ as well as beers, spirits, low and no alcohol alternatives, soft drinks and snacks.ย 

Majestic employees will host free wine tastings seven days a week from the in-store Tasting Counter. Customers will have the opportunity to try a selection of wines before they buy, receive tasting notes and get expert advice from employees, all of whom are trained through the Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET).ย 

The new shop will also support Majesticโ€™s B2B division, Majestic Commercial, supplying wines to gastropubs, bars and restaurants in the local area.ย 

Majestic Commercial currently partners with more than 3,000 hospitality venues across the UK.ย 

Plymouth marks the sixth new store Majestic has opened in its current financial year, and its third in less than two weeks following launches in Banstead on 31 October and Solihull on 7 November.ย 

The retailer has also cut the ribbon on new shops in Jersey, East Dulwich and Brentwood since April, as part of plans to expand at an average of one new store per month during the coming years.ย 

Majestic CEO John Colley said: โ€œPlymouth is a city weโ€™ve been targeting for some time as part of our expansion plans, so we are delighted to finally be opening our newest store here. Everyone at Majestic is looking forward to welcoming hundreds of new customers from the local community and sharing our award-winning wines and expert knowledge with them.

โ€œWhether youโ€™re celebrating with a bottle of fizz, looking for a Black Friday deal, or stocking up on winter reds and Fine Wines for Christmas, our expert Majestic colleagues can help you discover wines, beers and spirits you will love, whatever your occasion, taste or budget.โ€
