High Street catalogue shop Argos is opening another store in Brighton and Hove.

More than 50 jobs have been created at the Argos Extra outlet in Carden Avenue, which opens on Saturday.

The store has an open stock room so customers can see what is going on behind the scenes. Argos, which already has a shop in Western Road, Brighton, said the new store reflected its continued investment in the area.

Store manager Nikki Clarke said: "Saturday is an extremely exciting day."

Argos now has more than 560 stores in the UK and Republic of Ireland and sales of more than £3 billion.
