The latest store, which will be the third to feature the new Robert Dyas brand identity, is opening in East Sheen to meet customer demand in southwest London.

Robert Dyas ceo Steven Round said: "We are really excited about the new store opening. Since the management buyout earlier this year we have been focused on growing the Robert Dyas brand and increasing our high street presence even further.

"We are also investing heavily in the re-branding and refurbishments of our stores to reflect the progression of the brand. To date we have already re-opened our Colchester and Maidenhead premises as 'Stores of the Future', and now we are opening a brand new one in East Sheen."
