M&S to invest over £90 million in London stores

Marks & Spencer will be investing £90 million in the opening of 17 new and improved stores across London.

The move will create 450 new jobs in the capital from zones one to six.

Adding 70,000 square feet to the retailer’s London footprint, new foodhalls are set to launch in Covent Garden, Leytonstone, Clapham Common, Putney, New Malden and Fulham Broadway over the next few years, subject to planning permission.

In addition, seven existing foodhalls in Brooklands, Islington, Brent Cross, Whetstone, Wimbledon, Chiswick, and Clapham South are being renewed.

The store in Clapham South has already reopened and now includes a revamped produce section with a wider selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, ambient and frozen sections twice the size, and a larger bakery.

Meanwhile, three train station stores have been given a fresh look and reopened recently in Euston, St Pancras and Charring Cross.

All sites will feature the retailer’s latest in-store designs with market-style fruit and veg, large bakeries with fresh coffee to go, and click and collect counters for  online M&S clothing and home orders.

Sacha Berendji, operations director at M&S, said: “London has always been a special place for M&S, growing from penny bazaars in the early 20th century into fresh foodhalls like the one in Brixton we reopened last year.

“We serve thousands of customers in the capital across our full line offering in larger stores on Oxford Street, which are soon to be redeveloped, to food on the move in train stations and we are always looking at what we can do next.

“Our pipeline of stores demonstrates our continued investment in London, and we will continue to bring the very best of M&S to customers from Brixton to Barnet for years to come.”

Earlier this month, M&S announced that it would be investing £50 million in new and improved shops in the north west of England.
