Vodafone to open 50 new stores

Vodafone has announced a multi-million pound investment plan to open 50 new stores, creating 200 new jobs in retail by spring 2009.

The new stores, which will take the numbers of stores to more than 400, will appear in high streets and shopping centres from September, starting with Bristol Cabot Circus and White City London, and Liverpool in October.

All the new stores are expected to follow Vodafone's award design, dividing the store in to zones, including self service for top ups, and a 'pharmacy for phones' where advisors will answer questions on handsets and technology - you can also expect mobile broadband to be a prominent feature.

Vodafone will also be rolling out new scheduling tool in stores, which will calculate how many advisors are needed on a particular day, based on footfall, to help reduce customer waiting times.
