Family-run Okells Garden Centre to open new shop in Chester

A popular independent garden centre which has been helping Cheshire residents with their home plots for over 40 years is to open a new site in Chester.

Family-run Okells Garden Centre, located off the A51 Tarporley Road between Tarvin and Tarporley, made a cryptic post on its social media pages about a second site that is coming 'soon'.

The seller of indoor and outdoor plants, plus curated homewares, offered more of a clue on its hiring page, as it has announced it is opening a second site in Hoole.

Okells, which has been trading since 1982, is hiring for a range of roles at its new Hoole centre, including front of house and retail assistants.
