A NEW value fashion store's opening has been cancelled for the second time.

The PEP&CO store in Eastleigh's Swan Shopping Centre was set for its grand opening replacing the Monsoon and Accessorize stores that previously occupied the same units today.

This was after the store cancelled its original opening last Wednesday Shopping centre management had said the opening had been delayed due to logistics as the store's refit and stocking of items was not yet complete, but it is not known at this stage why the opening was cancelled again.

A statement on the centre's Facebook page said: "Due to unforeseen circumstances, we are regret that PEP&CO will not be opening."

There is not yet a new date finalised for the opening.
