Zara to open first store in a UK airport
Zara, the Spanish fashion and homeware brand, has opened its first store in a UK airport.
The 2,830 sq ft store at Heathrow’s Terminal 3 opens its doors this week and features the retailer’s new global design concept which was recently unveiled in Westfield Stratford City.
The store will offer lines from Zara’s premium women’s collection as well as a range of accessories including bags and shoes. Stock will be replenished twice weekly.
Muriel Zingraff-Shariff, retail concessions director at Heathrow, said: “We’re thrilled to have Zara at Heathrow. It is such a popular retailer, not only in the UK but around the world, so we’re confident it will be a welcome addition to the brands we already house at Terminal 3.”
Since opening its first shop in 1975 in Spain, Zara has grown its network of stores to 1,700 across 78 countries.
Other retailers present at Terminal 3 include Paul Smith, Miu Miu, Mulberry, Harrods, Ralph Lauren, Hermes and Kurt Geiger.
