A seasoned retailer Gary Reynolds has decided to close his shop in Newport so that he can concentrate on his business in Blackwood town centre.
The business called Mr Mobile sells a large range of phone accessories as well as pre-owned phones, it also undertakes repair work.
Known locally as ‘The Irish One’ the shop is located in Gravel Lane, which links the High Street and The Market Place Shopping Centre. Gary originally began the business working from a stall in markets before opening shops on South Wales high streets. He has been trading in Blackwood for the last 12 years.
Gary said:
I needed to focus on just one shop so I choose Blackwood and closed in Newport. I like the town and the people here are really nice and very friendly which makes a difference to how you spend your day.
Mr Mobile supports the Armed Forces & Emergency Services by offering serving personnel a discount.
