It’s a mixed outlook for the Chantry Centre this week as new businesses open in the shopping centre, while another leaves town. The One Pound Shop is taking over a large unit opposite Waterstones in the heart of the building, while the BID emporium, featuring products from a range of the town’s businesses. Meanwhile, Waterstones’ neighbour Game has confirmed it is leaving Andover, with the business relocating out of town. Kal Dhillon, director of The One Pound Shop group, said they were “really excited” to come to Andover. The Chantry Centre has been at the heart of town for a number of years, but has suffered from changing retail habits, with a number of units lying empty. It was purchased by Test Valley Borough Council (TVBC) in 2019, who set about on a number of projects aimed at revitalising the building.
