Chopstix has announced plans to open at least four sites in Wales this year, building upon existing stores in Cardiff, Swansea and Bridgend.
Starting a period of expansion in Wales, Chopstix opened its second site in the capital this month, with the St David’s Shopping Centre store launching to a fanfare from Cardiff diners.
Set to follow is a new opening in Cwmbran this summer, and two further openings in North Wales by the end of the year. The new locations will include striking design elements the brand has become renowned for such as its iconic ‘living wall’, natural wood finishes and its winking anime character that features across all Chopstix locations.
Commenting, Jon Lake, Managing Director for Chopstix, said: “We recognise there is a huge appetite for Chopstix in Wales, both customer feedback and turnover has been remarkable across the Cardiff, Bridgend and Swansea stores. The clear popularity of the brand in Wales has given us real impetus to identify additional locations across the country and I’m delighted we’ve found such a great site for our second Cardiff store and for our first in Cwmbran. The next step for us will be moving into North Wales, with two openings in the pipeline which we’re looking forward to revealing before too long.”
