Screwfix is set to open two new stores as part of its latest expansion across Northern Ireland.
The company revealed Enniskillen and Cookstown are next on its list of regional towns where it will establish outlets.
This new development in its expansion plans is expected to create around 16 new jobs.
Screwfix currently has three stores in Belfast, as well as outlets in Newtownabbey, Ballymena, Lisburn, Bangor, Newry, Lurgan, Londonderry and Omagh.
The new Enniskillen store, which will be the first in Co Fermanagh, will be located in a 5,000 sq ft unit on the Derrychara Link, between the Erneside shopping centre and Tesco.
Screwfix has submitted a planning application to Fermanagh and Omagh District Council, seeking to change its use from a retail unit into a Screwfix storage distribution unit with a trade counter sales area.
A similar application was also submitted to Mid Ulster District Council, for a new store in a 6,000 sq ft unit at Sweep Road, Cookstown.
The new store, which will be its second in Co Tyrone, will be located in a small retail park just next to the Asda supermarket in Cookstown.
Screwfix, which is owned by B&Q parent company Kingfisher, expanded its Northern Ireland presence to 11 stores last year, opening new units in Belfast’s Duncrue Industrial Estate and Omagh.
Despite a difficult start to 2018, the DIY catalogue store has continued to be the feather in parent company Kingfisher’s hat.
While poor weather was blamed on a 9% sales slump at sister company B&Q in the three months to April 30, Screwfix went the other way with a 9% improvement in the same period.
Kingfisher also added another 10 Screwfix stores across the UK and Ireland during the first quarter of 2018.
Screwfix currently has a network of 580 stores across the UK with a further 19 stores in Germany.
Further UK stores are planned to open in the next few years.
