An internationally-renowned retailer in Exeter will open a new store as part of the £7 million redevelopment of the Guildhall Shopping Centre.
The Echo can reveal that the Body Shop will leave the Higher Market Ambulatory arcade and open new premises in place of Card Factory opposite Wilkinson.
The upcoming move on the weekend of October 4 will be its first for 30 years.
Jackie Collier, the Body Shop's franchise operations manager, has welcomed the move.
"We can't wait," she said. "Everyone is really excited because it will be a brilliant opportunity for us and our customers will love it too."
The existing shop will close at 5.30pm on the Friday and the new 'boutique' store will open the next day at 10.30am.
