Hide AdOwner Michael Holland, who has lived in Eastbourne for 14 years, is taking on the new venture alongside being his usual job as a landscaper. He said he can ‘already feel [the business] will be a major success’.
Despite this, Mr Holland said he ‘almost gave up’ while setting up the business after someone else had taken the premises in Grove Road.
He said: "It’s been really hard, if I’m honest, but the result has definitely been worth it.”
The shop will be open seven days a week and will have longer opening hours to begin with.
My Candy Land is situated at 54 Grove Road, BN21 4UD.
