Scamp & Dude to open sixth UK retail location in Manchester

British womenswear brand Scamp & Dude is opening a 1,938 sq ft store at 1-5 St Ann’s Square in Manchester on 14 September 2024, marking its sixth UK location and largest retail space to date.

It comes off the back of a pop-up store the brand opened at Manchester’s Trafford Centre on 19 June, which was originally scheduled to run for three months but could now be six months and beyond due to its success.

Jo Tutchener-Sharp, Founder and Ceo of Scamp & Dude, said: "We are thrilled to expand our physical retail presence with our largest store yet in Manchester.

"This new space allows us to connect even more closely with our customers and the local community, providing a venue for exciting events and activations."

The launch of the new store will be marked by an opening weekend of activations commencing on Friday 13 September, welcoming local media during the day, followed by a ticketed drinks party in the evening.

The celebrations will continue on Saturday 14 September - when the store opens to the public - with additional in-store activities planned for adults and kids.

Tutchener-Sharp founded Scamp & Dude in 2016 as a kidswear brand, but it has since evolved to be 98% womenswear with categories including ready-to-wear, activewear, resort wear and sustainable denim.

As well as having been widely supported by VIP’s including Laura Whitmore, Billie Piper and Vicky McClure, Scamp & Dude is dedicated to supporting various charitable causes including for women with cancer through its ‘Super Scarves’ initiative. The most recent of which was a collaboration with Giovanna Fletcher.

When a Super Scarf is bought, Scamp & Dude donate another to a woman with cancer. Likewise, for every ‘Superhero Sleep Buddy’ sold, another is donated to a child who has lost a parent or is seriously ill themselves.

To date, Scamp & Dude has donated over 50,000 Super Scarves via over 300 hospital partners, as well as 8,000 Superhero Sleep Buddies and £2 million in cash donations and Scamp & Dude products.

The new Manchester retail space adds to the brand’s existing stores at London’s Battersea Power Station, Marlow, Cambridge and Edinburgh.
