Superdrug officially opened its 100th retail park store at Queens Drive Retail Park in Kilmarnock on June 24, 2026, creating 20 permanent jobs. The 10,000 sq ft store marks the retailer's return to the town after closing its city centre location in 2020.
Store Features and Promotions
The new store offers a wide range of health and beauty products, including international brands and Superdrug's own-label collections such as Studio London, B. Skin, Me+, Vitamin E, and Optimum. It also features a dedicated Beauty Studio providing brow, nail, and piercing services.
To celebrate the opening, the first 100 customers received free goody bags, and an in-store DJ provided entertainment. Superdrug is offering a special Health & Beautycard promotion for new sign-ups, along with 20 per cent off beauty services during the first two weeks.
Partnership with Kilmarnock Women's FC
Superdrug announced a new partnership with Kilmarnock Women's FC, supporting the team through a training wear partnership with the brand featured on their kits. Four players, including Arwen O'Brien and Lucie Burns, cut the ribbon and greeted customers on opening day.
Jim Chapman, manager of Kilmarnock Women's FC, said: "We are delighted to have the support of Superdrug as one of our training wear partners for the upcoming season. Women's football is the fastest growing sport in the world and the support of a major brand is a huge endorsement for all the efforts our girls put in."
