"We’ve been here since 6am securing the premises with the police.

"It’s not just the glass we’ll have to replace – they took our till, blenders, speakers, and a lot of other stuff.

"We opened this shop through sweat and tears and, literally two months later, this happens.

"If you have any information, CCTV footage, or spot any of the items on sale somewhere, please let us know.”
