The Original Factory Shop is a discount retailer of clothes, electrical and other items with over two hundred stores across the country. The premises used to be occupied by a branch of Somerfields, a supermarket chain. Following the purchase of Somerfields by the Co-operative Society, who already had a supermarket in the town, the Carterton branch was sold to Haldanes, a small operator of supermarkets. Haldanes hit financial difficulties and closed all their stores in 2011. Subsequently this became a branch of The Original Factory Shop.
