The Phoenix Store will open a new pharmacy at the Royal Naval Dockyard in April.
The new store will cater primarily to cruise ship passengers docking at the former naval base.
The company also plans to move its store in the Clarendon Building to the new Victoria Place development on Victoria Road, Hamilton.
A famous wine and spirit shop in the town of St George has shut its doors.
Gosling’s have closed their store in York Street due to a lack of trade. The move is a direct result of the reduced number of cruise ships visiting the historic town.
In the 2009 cruise season the only ship docking at St George on a regular basis is the Norwegian Majesty. In 2008 both the Norwegian Dream and the Norwegian Majesty docked in the town.
Cooper’s will officially open their new Front Street store this weekend. The previous store closed in January 2005 to make way for a new building. Since then Bermuda’s retail giant has been operating out of smaller satellite stores.
Gosling’s, the Bermuda-based company famous for its Black Seal Rum, has converted its former beer warehouse on Dundonald Street into a new store.
The new shop offers more than 3,000 different wines and spirits, plus wine tasting and dining areas.
Another feature is a temperature-controlled wine cellar where patrons can store their wines, safe from the effects of Bermuda’s humid climate.
