25 pictures from the opening of SpudBros Express in Colne

Take a look at the scenes as Preston’s SpudBros opened another store in Lancashire this week.

Yesterday, Preston’s viral jacket potato creators, SpudBros, officially opened a new express store in East Lancashire.

Located in Colne, the new store marks their 16th ‘Express store’ in the UK, following a rapid succession of SpudBros Express openings across London, Sheffield, Portsmouth, and Edinburgh alongside EG On The Move concessions in Blackburn, Chepstow, Nottingham, Newcastle, Liverpool, Shropshire, Wakefield, Wyberton, Barnstaple and Doncaster.

Delivered in partnership with Taster, the European leader in creator-led food brands, and EG On The Move, the opening forms part of an ambitious nationwide expansion that will see 30 new roadside locations launch across EG on the Move forecourts over the next three years.

To celebrate the Colne launch, SpudBros announced they would be giving away a free spud to the first 100 customers through the doors so we were not surprised to hear that hundreds of hungry customers turned up.

Taking to social media last night, the brothers behind SpudBros, Harvey and Jacob Nelson, said: “Today marked the opening of the 16th SpudBros Express store… what a milestone! Our franchisees and partners have absolutely smashed it, we couldn’t be prouder of everyone who’s been part of making this happen. 16 stores. So many incredible people. What a journey it has been… and we’re only just getting started.”

We were sent various pictures from the grand openingso take a look at 25 of them next.
