Surrey's Ashdown Travel has taken on two former Baldwins teams, as well as marketing and commercial manager Tricia Lester. The agency, which is based in Oxted, is expanding into nearby Tunbridge Wells and also Sevenoaks, both in Kent, to fill the gaps left on the high street by Baldwins' demise in July.
Ashdown's Tunbridge Wells shop opened its doors last Tuesday (2 September) and will officially open on Wednesday 17 September. Work to fit out the Sevenoaks shop, meanwhile, is under way with a view to opening the shop on Monday 15 September ahead of an official opening on Thursday 18 September.
