Per Una factory shop?

Mumto2

Does anyone know anything about the Per Una factory shop in Hinckley? I can't seem to find anything official on the net, but would like to know opening hours and if it is worthwhile? (apologies if it is on here, I have done a search

Thanks!

Is this the factory shop that has monsoon clothes too?
I heard from some where that there is a shop, where you can buy both Per Una and monsoon clothes from the manufacturers direct. You pay per bag full and it's somewhere in Leicestershire and I think it's in Hinckley. From memory I think it's open Friday's and Saturday. It's not the most obvious place and it's a bit like a jumble sale, with people trying to grab some great bargains.
However, that's as far as I got, I think it's quite a trade secret and it's hard to find the exact details.
So if anyone knows - PLEASE let us know.

It's called Trafford Knitware, next opening times are Fri 1st Dec 10am-4pm, Fri 8th Dec 10-4, Sat 9th Dec 9-1, Fri 15th dec 10-4, Fri 22nd Dec 9am-12pm.

Some advice that I would pass on is either go at least half an hour before it opens as people will be queueing already or wait until it has been open for an hour.

Prepare to feel like a sardine as it is VERY busy!
Excellent prices though, skirts 12 pounds, tops 8-10 etc!

Thanks Jenny - looks like you live quite close by!
Are the opening times regular, as I would probably look to go in January.
Do you know if they take cards (I know sometimes this sort of place is cash/cheque only)
Thanks!:j

Usually every other week, Its advertised in our local paper the day before. The dates I gave you were on a slip of paper I got the last time I went.
They don't take cards, it is cheque or cash only.
I will try my best to let you know when in Jan they will be opening.

Is that for Monsoon as well?
Thank you!

No, only Per Una and some M&S as far as I know.

Sorry that I gave the wrong info about monsoon. There must be a factory shop somewhere other than the outlet stores. We'll have to keep on searching for Monsoon.......

Right, latest info is that an advert has been placed in the local paper saying that the factory shop will re-open in February. No dates yet but I'll let you know when I do ..... and see you there!
