A second travel money branch has opened in a shopping centre.

NM Money - offering foreign exchange, international payments, mortgage brokering, insurance and gold services - has opened in County Square Shopping Centre in Ashford.

It is the second currency shop to open in the centre, as No1 Currency Exchange is based a few units away.

Since the company launched last year, 20 branches have opened across the UK.

The NM Group, which owns NM Money and Eurochange, is in the process of rebranding some of its stores.

Eurochange stores in Canterbury, Dover, Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells are set to be rebranded as NM Money, with all in-branch services set to remain the same.

Tony Gibbons, managing director at NM Money, said: "We’re delighted to now have a presence in Ashford and look forward to serving the local community.

"The weak pound has meant that holidaymakers are receiving less for their British pound against many currencies including the Euro and US Dollar, although the pound has strengthened after the results of the recent election.

"Part of our commitment to the public is to ensure fair and transparent pricing, and to provide expert advice to help holidaymakers, helping them get better value from their travel currency.”
