Shop owner Paul Marsh has been a resident in Portugal for over 20 years. During the last few years, he has built up a successful wholesale business, supplying gift products to the many souvenir shops spread across the Algarve. He had been thinking about opening a shop for himself for sometime. So, when a friend told him that a shop with a warehouse, in a great location, was up for grabs, Paul managed to get in first and the rest, as they say, is history. In fact, if it hadn’t been for the hours spent completing a 9,000-piece jigsaw (on show in the shop) and playing golf, Paul may have found something earlier!
The shop is located between the two banks by the taxi rank near ‘The Strip’ traffic lights, and is open from 10am to 10pm (closed on Sundays). For more information, call 917 516 301.
