The UK’s No.1 homewares retailer is bringing its new superstore format to Flemingate and will take over the former Debenhams department store to become the centre’s new anchor operator.
Dunelm has taken a 10-year lease on the two-storey former department store and will begin fitting out the building in the next couple of weeks. The new store is expected to open just before Christmas as the latest addition to Dunelm’s network of more than 170 outlets across the country.
The 41,000sq ft Flemingate store will showcase Dunelm’s new multi-department format, providing more inspiration for customers as well as an even better shopping experience.
The store will feature well-known departments including curtains to cookshop, Made to Measure and a Decorate & Co-ordinate department, including Dunelm’s new range of own brand paints and a Take Home Today furniture department. It will also include a Dunelm’s own Pausa coffee shop, serving freshly-ground Arabica coffee and a range of sandwiches, cakes and treats for shoppers to enjoy.
Wykeland Managing Director Dominic Gibbons said: “We’re delighted to announce Dunelm, one of the country’s leading retailers, is bringing its exciting new superstore format to Flemingate and that the former Debenhams store will once again be fully occupied.”
Steve Barton, Dunelm Director of Property, said: “This is a great opportunity for Dunelm to bring our latest store offering to customers in Beverley. Our new Flemingate store will have everything needed to help savvy customers refresh and revamp their homes, from simple haberdashery items to stylish and highly affordable furniture.”
