TFG London, renowned for its ownership of fashion brands Hobbs, Whistles, Phase Eight, and the homeware retailer Inside Story, is poised to inaugurate its largest store to date at Liverpool One. Scheduled to commence operations next spring on South John Street, this expansive 12,000 sq ft flagship is set to become a central attraction, offering a comprehensive selection of products from its beloved brands.
The new outlet promises to bring under one roof a variety of Hobbs’ celebrated luxury fashion offerings. In tandem, Phase Eight will present its notable occasionwear collections, while Whistles will showcase its widely appreciated contemporary womenswear. This strategic variety aims to cater to a broad spectrum of fashion preferences and needs.
Moreover, the flagship will introduce specialised lines such as bridal and petite ranges, enhancing its appeal to a diverse clientele. Adding a layer of exclusivity, a luxury styling suite will cater to shoppers seeking bespoke styling services for significant events, thus enriching the overall customer experience.
Inside Story will complement the fashion selections with an assorted homeware department, featuring an array of soft furnishings and home accessories, designed to attract a varied customer base.
Caraline Money, TFG’s Global Retail Director, emphasized that the new store concept aligns with the company’s strategy to establish expansive outlets in key shopping destinations, such as Liverpool, where a loyal customer base is already established. ‘Our new store strategy is focused on opening bigger and better stores in prominent shopping destinations,’ Money stated.
In the financial sphere, TFG’s recent securing of a £90 million refinancing facility signifies a pivotal advancement in its strategic growth agenda. This financial manoeuvre not only refinanced an existing £60 million debt facility but also included an additional £30 million to foster flexibility for further investments. Such financial underpinnings are deemed crucial for TFG’s expansion pursuits both within the UK and on an international scale.
TFG London’s strategic flagship expansion at Liverpool One underscores its commitment to growth and customer satisfaction, underpinned by robust financial planning.
