Uniqlo has reopened its White City Westfield store after a comprehensive 10-month renovation, claiming the revamp provides an ‘enriched shopping experience’. The newly expanded shopfloor now spans two floors, featuring an extensive collection of LifeWear apparel, reflecting Uniqlo’s commitment to offering versatile and comfortable clothing solutions.
In a bid to cater to families, the store now boasts a specially designed children’s play area. This addition aims to transform shopping trips into enjoyable family outings, recognising the importance of accommodating the needs of parents and children alike.
Notably, Uniqlo continues its collaboration with homelessness charity Crisis, introducing a new line of t-shirts featuring characters ‘Mr. and Little Miss Invisible’. This initiative seeks not only to raise funds but also to increase awareness about homelessness. The exclusive items are available initially at the White City store, highlighting Uniqlo’s ongoing social commitment.
Alessandro Dudech, Uniqlo UK’s chief operating officer, expressed enthusiasm about the reopening, emphasising the larger, more vibrant space that accommodates a significant kids and baby department. He noted the intent to make the store a destination where shopping is both fun and convenient for families.
The reopening complements Uniqlo’s broader retail strategy, marked by the September launch of its Coal Drops Yard location. This store is situated within a historical building and incorporates sustainable practices, including a dedicated Uniqlo Studio for garment recycling and repair, reflecting the brand’s environmental concerns.
Uniqlo’s strategic store expansions and collaborations reflect its commitment to enhancing customer experiences and social responsibility.
