Haussmann finds location for first store
The group of Dutch entrepreneurs and financial investors behind the new Haussmann boutique department brand have found a location in Amsterdam for the first store.
The store will be situated in the heart of the city’s Rokin district, next to Marks & Spencer’s future flagship store.
In addition to luxury fashion and leisure departments, the store will also include a fresh food market and a fine dining restaurant on the top floor offering panoramic views of Amsterdam.
The new shop will open in the second half of 2016.
Never Miss a Retail Update!Frans van der Kraan, founding partner and chief executive of Haussmann, said: “Haussmann’s mission is to redefine luxury retail by setting a new standard on good living and taste, which goes far beyond what today’s conventional department stores are offering. Haussmann strives to truly touch and inspire its customers through a combination of high quality products (food and non-food), innovative service concepts and the use of state-of-the-art technology.”
Hausmann said the store will also include space for artistic and cultural events including showcasing opportunities for up and coming Dutch designers and artisans.
