TWO new shops have opened at the Dockside Outlet Centre in Chatham Maritime – and a third is on the way.

Cromwell’s Madhouse opened on Saturday, selling a selection of clothes for men and women. They stock a number of designer brands as well as their own label.

The opening of Cromwell’s Madhouse closely follows Plush Cards two weeks ago. Plush sell a range of cards and stationery to suit all occasions.

Shoe addicts will also not be disappointed as South African shoe company Hemisphere will be opening their first British store in the coming weeks.

The store will stock a range of good value high quality mens and ladies shoes.

Centre manager Anthony Sutton said: "I’m confident that they will be a great addition to the wide range of stores already successfully trading at the centre."

The new arrivals are good news for Dockside Outlet following Marks and Spencer’s decision not to press ahead with its plans for a store there earlier this year.
