“Liverpool ONE is an innovative and inspiring shopping destination and we feel very excited about the opportunity to meet new customers and to expand our presence in the UK.”

Alison Clegg, director of asset management at the property firm behind Liverpool ONE, Grosvenor Europe, commented: “The signing of ARKET secures one of Europe’s most interesting new brands for Liverpool ONE.

“Their presence adds even more appeal to our offer, which is unique in the North West and one of the most compelling in the UK.”
