Manchester Arndale is delighted to welcome Scandinavian lifestyle retailer Søstrene Grene, which will open a 4,952sq ft store at the North West’s leading retail destination.
The new opening follows a series of recent lettings at Manchester Arndale, including Sephora, Alo Yoga and PureSeoul, underlining the destination’s strength and appeal to a diverse range of retailers.
Recent arrivals from both clothing and lifestyle brands have highlighted the strong demand from international retailers keen to expand their presence in Manchester and Søstrene Grene’s commitment demonstrates that this momentum extends well beyond fashion into alternative and experiential retail.

The brand now operates across Europe with a growing UK presence, attracting shoppers looking for design-led yet affordable products in an immersive retail environment.
