ARKET is going to open its fourth store in the UK today. The opening follows the brand’s launch in August 2017 with stores on Regent Street and Covent Garden in London, as well as in Copenhagen, Brussels, Munich and Amsterdam, and an online store in 18 European markets.
Located at the Bluewater shopping centre in Kent, this is ARKET’s first UK store outside of London. The new store will be a modern-day market with essential products for women, children and the home. The broad, but carefully curated collections are complemented by selected items from around 50 other brands. The brand’s mission is to democratise quality through widely accessible, well-made, durable products designed to be used and loved for a long time.
“We chose London as the city to launch last autumn and have had a great reception in the UK during our first year. We’re very happy to have the opportunity to grow and meet new customers, and look forward to be part of the exciting diversity of brands at Bluewater”, says ARKET’s Managing Director Lars Axelsson.
