Opening Times:



Owners, John and Michele Stocker bought the shop in March 2004. We wanted to work together after spending many years working in London and Gatwick respectively. Our backgrounds are very different from the Retail environment in which we are now in. John worked in Purchasing and Michele was in Security.
Our children were raised in Crawley, West Sussex and we moved to the South Coast in 1996. After travelling on Public Transport for seven years we decided to look for something closer to home. We both gave up work in 2003 to concentrate on looking for a business we could run together.
After eight months of looking we found NEWSMART.
Our philosophy is simple, we treat every customer how we would wish to be treated ourselves. We believe we have created a welcoming environment which is clean, tidy and well presented.
We like to offer products that you can’t find in the Supermarkets. Which provides a personal touch. We serve, on average, over 1000 customers every week, 364 days per year !!!
NEWSMART has grown rapidly since we took over. We now deliver over 370,000 publications to over 1000 customers each year. We are the Daily Mail’s top selling Independent agent in the South and currently outsell both the local WH Smith and Sainsbury stores. Sales of Magazines have increased dramatically and we now stock over 750 titles, with a further 200 plus titles being specially ordered in for customers.
Our sales of National Lottery and Scratchcard Tickets make us the number two independent in the Southern Region !!!
