OneBeyond (formerly known as OneBelow) is a British variety store launched by Christopher Edwards and Chris Edwards Sr.[3] Christopher Edwards is managing director while father Chris Edwards Sr is chairman.
In October 2018, it was announced that Poundworld founders Christopher Edwards and Chris Edwards Sr [4] would be launching their own new variety store, where products are sold for £1 or less. OneBelow was incorporated on 29 September 2018 as OneBelow Retail Limited.[5] One Below would be very similar to Edwards former venture of Poundworld which went into administration in June 2018.[6]
On 1 March 2019 OneBelow opened four new stores on the same day, with branches in Doncaster,[7]South Shields[8] and two more in two different areas of Leeds in Kirkstall and Rothwell.[9] All of the new OneBelow shops that opened on 1 March 2019 were placed in former Poundworld spaces and retail units. When asked about OneBelow, Edwards said in an interview "We've had a good response from landlords we've dealt with historically. We're lining shops up and most of them are going to be Poundworld sites."[10] OneBelow are aiming to have 100 stores open and trading by the end of 2019.[11][12]
Following surging inflation and considerably higher import costs, the chain rebranded to OneBeyond from September 2022, with a new strapline of Amazing value from only £1. Director Chris Edwards said that the rebrand was always intending to happen, however was brought forward by around a year due to inflation challenges of 2022. The strapline is the third adopted by the chain since its inception in 2018, with the previous one being 4,000 products £1 or less.[15]
