Lounge selects Manchester Arndale for fifth store
Lounge Underwear has agreed a 10-year lease for a 2,746 sq ft unit at Manchester Arndale, as the brand continues its UK expansion.
As well as underwear, the new store will provide shoppers with swimwear and apparel, including t-shirts, hoodies, leggings, shorts, loungewear, dressing gowns, and accessories.
Lounge Underwear's first bricks-and-mortar store concept at Westfield London
The new location marks the brand's fifth store in the UK, following openings at Westfield London, Manchester Trafford Centre, Leeds Trinity and Bristol Cabot Circus.
The business will join a number of existing fashion brands at Manchester Arndale, including Burberry, Canada Goose, NEXT, French Connection, Hollister, Kurt Geiger and Ann Summers.
It will also follow the recent arrivals of Nike, Moss, Dune and The North Face, as well as River Island's upsized store plans.
Steve Gray, Head of European Retail Asset Management at Global Mutual, said: "It is great testament to Manchester Arndale’s appeal that Lounge has selected it for its newest store, and comes off the back of a series of high-profile lettings at the centre in recent months.
"We are continuing to grow the amount of fashion brands at Manchester Arndale as we look to cement the centre’s place as the North West’s go-to fashion destination, and we look forward to announcing more exciting arrivals over the next few weeks."
