London Designer Outlet

London says Hello (Kitty!) to MINISO UK on opening day of its first ever UK outlet store. On a buzzing Black Friday at LDO, we welcomed queues of loyal #LoveMinisoUK fans all ready for a pop of colour & joy with their favourite brand characters from Hello Kitty to Snoopy, My Melody to Minions. Announcing the deal last week, Matthew Slade said "MINISO’s cross-generational and playful appeal complements our shopper base, and we believe their globally recognised products, which will be available at outlet prices for the first time, will see customers young and old flock to their new store in the run up to the busy Christmas period. “... MINISO is part of our ongoing strategy of keeping LDO fresh and exciting, ensuring it remains London’s go-to outlet destination drawing in shoppers from across the capital and beyond.” #LondonDesignerOutlet #RetailLeasing Multi-Realm Louise Evans Christine Grace Daniel Tomkinson

Out of the last 18 months, an impressive 14 months have seen record-breaking trading at the London Designer Outlet, driven by our growing fashion offer, our enhanced in-store experience, and a programme of best-in-class entertainment at Wembley Stadium. In the last year and we’ve seen: 🏆 Best ever sales performance outside of December with August surpassing £10m ☀️ Record breaking summer trading following our best Q1 sales to date. 🏟️ Footfall of over 5.45m in-line with world class events at the stadium, including Taylor Swift, the FA Cup Final, AD/DC, and Bruce Springsteen. 🛍️ 3 additions to our brand line-up including Ben Sherman, and LIDS RETAIL LIMITED, plus 3 more of our stores investing in major store upgrades including Sunglass Hut’s 20% upsizing this summer. As we look to the rest of 2024, we expect to continue to build on the year's momentum so far and prepare for what promises to be another exciting year with the arrival of the #Oasisreunion tour in 2025.   Tomorrow Matthew Slade Slade and Louise Evans will be at Completely Retail Marketplace.

*Another wave of new brands and upsizes at LDO, following continued trading growth*   In addition to an impressive new Ben Sherman store, we are pleased to report that Lids has also joined our extensive fashion and accessories offer.   After ten successful years at the centre, Sunglass Hut has invested further into its commitment by relocating to a 20% larger unit. This marks the latest in a long line of brands that have undergone major store upgrades at our urban outlet in recent years, opening flagship concepts akin to their full price offer.    On top of this, Q2 marked a second record-breaking May in a row, recording over £8.6 million in sales and a year-on-year increase in June.   Matt Slade, Retail Director at Quintain, said: “The continued investment by brands into their offer at the LDO, alongside another record-breaking trading month, highlights the destination’s appeal for both retailers and shoppers.” Read more in EG: https://lnkd.in/ev2Uhuqk #BritishRetail #LondonDesignerOutlet #NewBrands #WembleyPark #LDO

We can’t wait to welcome Ben Sherman to our amazing brand line up…not long now….#bensherman #newbrand #comingsoon

Out of the last 15 months at LDO, a staggering 10 months have marked record-breaking trading as year-to-March-end sales exceeded £100m for the first time. Shoppers continue to be drawn to the quality shopping experience that London Designer Outlet offers, driven by our increased fashion offering. Brands such as BOSS, Tommy Hilfiger, Calvin Klein, Guess and Levi’s, which have invested into new stores or major store upgrades over the last two years at the centre, are reaping the rewards. Already this year we’ve seen record-breaking sales across Easter weekend, Valentine’s Day trading and January sales, as shoppers have been taking advantage of their favourite brands at affordable prices, as well as LDO’s position within the iconic Wembley Park neighbourhood. As we settle firmly into spring and look to summer, which will see a world-class entertainment line-up at the Stadium and Arena, including the much anticipated Taylor Swift performances in June and August, we expect even more successes to come.   Andrew Duncan and Louise Evans from our team at Realm will be at Completely Retail Marketplace to discuss opportunities at LDO. Get in touch with them to arrange a meeting.
