Lifestyle retailer Oliver Bonas has confirmed an opening date for its new Altrincham store.
We revealed in September that the retailer, which has 90 stores across the UK, would be bringing its signature range of fashion, homeware and gifts to the Stamford Quarter.
And we can now confirm that Oliver Bonas will be opening its new George Street store on Saturday 13th December.
The independent retailer has established itself as a popular brand renowned for its colourful and distinctive style.
Shoppers can expect a limited-edition range of festive gift sets, decorations, Christmas cards and stocking fillers, as well as a wide selection of jewellery, homeware and beauty products.
Sevda Cankorur, Head of Retail at Oliver Bonas, said: “Oliver Bonas is pleased to announce the opening of its new store in Altrincham, reinforcing the brand’s strategic expansion across the UK.
"The store will offer our distinctive range of fashion, homeware, and gifts, delivering an elevated shopping experience to the local community. We look forward to engaging with customers and establishing a long-term presence in Altrincham.”
The opening comes as part of the ongoing regeneration of the Stamford Quarter, which has seen significant transformation following a £14m joint acquisition by Bruntwood and Trafford Council in October 2019.
Recent developments include the creation of Foundation, a collaborative workspace and leisure destination featuring a 375 sq m living biophilic wall.
The area is now home to leading independent and national hospitality brands including Nell's Pizza, Yum Cha, Lane7 and Starbucks.
Last year the Stamford Quarter also welcomed new retail openings including Mountain Warehouse, Rituals, Crew Clothing and the first bricks-and-mortar concept store for online beauty retailer LOOKFANTASTIC.
Chris Houghton, Retail & Leisure Manager at Bruntwood, said: “We’re thrilled to welcome Oliver Bonas to the Stamford Quarter, and just in time for Christmas!
"The Stamford Quarter is home to a wide range of leading retail and hospitality brands and, as a well-loved independent store, Oliver Bonas marks a strong addition to the offering. We can’t wait to see visitors from Altrincham and further afield make the most of the new store over the coming months.”
Cllr Liz Patel, Trafford Council’s Executive Member for Economy and Regeneration, added: “The arrival of Oliver Bonas in town will be yet another reason to visit this thriving centre for shopping, leisure and entertainment. The transformation of Altrincham during the past decade has been a real success story for the borough and supports our Council priority of fostering a thriving economy.”
