The retailer issued a short statement outlining its nationwide footprint.

Overview

  • The video by TikTok creators Sophie and Jon (@sophiebiddz) shows their visit to the Preston Docks branch, drawing thousands of views and enthusiastic comments.
  • Reports describe the site as one of the UK’s largest B&M stores and list unusual features including an upstairs floor, a garden centre and a picnic station.
  • Coverage highlights broad, year-round seasonal stock, with Easter, Halloween and Christmas ranges alongside novelty homeware such as pizza-themed plates.
  • Newer reports put the store at about 39,000 sq ft and call it the second largest, while an earlier article cited 42,393 sq ft, underscoring inconsistency over size and ranking.
  • The Mirror notes a Bournemouth branch at Mallard Road Retail Park is reported at 79,000 sq ft, and B&M says it operates over 700 UK stores with more than four million weekly customers.
