Lefties to make UK debut at Liverpool ONE
Taking 35,000 sq ft across two floors, the Spanish department store will open its doors on 27 August at the city centre retail complex.
Lefties sells a mix of fashion, accessories, footwear, and home goods. It is owned by the same company as Zara, Inditex, and operates out of 20 countries in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa.
Lefties’ Liverpool ONE store will be a flagship for the brand in addition to being its first in the country.
The brand will take over the units on South John Street that were formerly let to Sports Direct and Superdry. The merged space will feature a series of smart retail solutions, including automated clothes sorters, robotic hanger sorters, and radio ID assisted checkouts.
CBRE, Time Retail Partners, and Colliers acted for Liverpool ONE-owner Landsec on the deal. Lefties was self-represented.
Brendan Hattam, centre director at Liverpool ONE, said the shopping complex was proud to have the first Lefties UK store.
“It speaks volumes that Lefties, part of the Inditex group, has chosen Liverpool ONE as its first site in the UK – our stand-out retail, leisure and hospitality offering located in the heart of the city is a major pull for leading international brands,” Hattam said.
“We know Lefties will prove incredibly popular with guests thanks to its accessible, contemporary, trend-led collections and we can’t wait for the store to open its doors.”
