Elephant Stores is a 3,000sq ft unit occupied by local brands Little Louie, SoLo Craft Fair, and Fix Your Cycle, and furnished – with all items for sale – by online operator, Vintage Matters.
Elephant Stores, a unit overlooking the new two-acre park within Zone One of London, has been purposely fitted from shell as a pop up to facilitate a wider range of uses for new businesses than a standard unit would provide, creating more opportunities for community-focused offers at Elephant Park.
Located at Elephant Stores is: Little Louie, a restaurant-bar-café hybrid venue that will serve classic brunch dishes during this day with a Nepalese-inspired evening menu as well as affordable cocktails and wines; SoLo Craft Fair, a South London based enterprise that run craft markets that promote small businesses; Fix Your Cycle which offers high-quality servicing and repairs, and with sustainability in mind, the sale of well-conditioned used cycles; and Vintage Matters which will provide furniture for the space, giving a new meaning to try before you buy.
Guy Thomas, Head of Place Assets , Lendlease, said: “Pre-fitting in the manner we have has made the process of attracting more diverse operators easier, cheaper and faster, and for a young business this can make the difference in enabling them to take a physical space. Lendlease has an ongoing commitment to securing a complete and varied mix of operators within Elephant Park, focusing on those that understand the local area and its community.
