Central London mixed-use destination continues to take shape with new brands

Nine brands will be joining a growing mixed-use retail complex in Central London.

The new retail, food and beverage brands including GANT, Kiehl’s and Bar Douro will be opening on British Land’s campus, joining names such as Everyman, Eataly and Grind.

Watches of Switzerland, the luxury jewellers have chosen 100 Liverpool Street to open their east London flagship store, and Chocolatier, Charbonnel et Walker are returning to Broadgate following the success of their previous store in 100 Liverpool Street.

Clothes retailer GANT will open its first ever east London store and will be joined by skincare brands Kiehl’s, Neom and The Body Shop.

100 Liverpool Street is a 520,000 sq. ft redevelopment designed by Hopkins Architects, with a focus on technology, sustainability and wellbeing.

At 1 Finsbury Avenue, Bar Douro, the traditional Portuguese tapas restaurant; Yolk, the fine fast food and speciality coffee joint and Nyokee, the healthy Italian trattoria have all committed to new restaurants.

The building, which reached practical completion in June, has already attracted an exciting occupier mix including technology company Mimecast, Product Madness, an online gaming platform and the City’s first Everyman cinema.

David Lockyer, head of Broadgate, British Land, said: “We’ve had fantastic leasing success at Broadgate, helping us create a vibrant place for people to work and visit.

“These new customers, our upcoming developments and our plans for a park at Exchange Square will help us continue to evolve Broadgate into a world class mixed use destination.”

The masterplan for Broadgate will deliver 4.9 million sq. ft of new and redefined workplaces, retail and restaurants, bringing people together to work, shop, drink and dine.

With nearly 30,000 workers, across technology, financial and legal services, as well as retail and occupiers, a dynamic and thriving business community is already well-established at Broadgate.
