TFG London, the owner of Hobbs, Whistles, Phase Eight and homeware retailer Inside Story, is set to open its largest store at Liverpool One.
Set to open next spring on South John Street, the 12,000 sq ft flagship will house Hobbs’ luxury fashion, Phase Eight’s occasionwear, and Whistles’ contemporary womenswear, along with specialist collections such as bridal and petite ranges and a luxury styling suite for event shoppers.
Inside Story will include a homewares department with a variety of soft furnishings and home accessories.
TFG global retail director Caraline Money said: “Our new store strategy is focused on opening bigger and better stores in prominent shopping destinations like Liverpool where we have built a loyal ever-growing customer base.
“The new store will enable us to showcase our full collection such as petites and bridal, offering our customers the complete head-to-toe outfit suggestions for every occasion in our beautiful, enhanced store environment.”
Back in April, TFG agreed a £90m refinancing facility to support its growth strategy.
The business successfully refinanced its existing £60m debt facility and secured an additional £30m in a move that it said marked “a significant step forward” in its strategic growth plans. It said the refinancing provided the flexibility for further investment in expansion both in the UK and internationally, and supported its longer-term acquisition strategy.
