Karaca opens first physical store in UK
Homewares retailer Karaca has opened its first UK physical store in London’s Islington Square.
Spanning 2,641 square feet across two floors, the store stocks the Turkish company’s ranges of tableware, cookware, bedding, home accessories and small appliances, including its latest Christmas ranges and gifting items. The shop also sells designer Hussein Chalayan’s limited edition sculptural tableware collection which was launched in the UK at Design London in September.
With sights firmly set on growth, Karaca now operates from over 375 dedicated stores and more than 1,100 concessions, as well as its online shopping channels, across three continents.
Cihangir Çetintırnak, Karaca UK managing director, said: “Today is an exciting day as we celebrate the opening of our first UK store in Islington, one of London’s most dynamic retail destinations.
“An exciting time for Karaca, seeing the store come to life with guests and now customers as we officially open to the public is a high point for us, as we look to continue the company’s global expansion here in the UK both online and as a bricks-and-mortar retailer.”
A family-run business founded in 1973, Karaca’s offering includes over 1,000 design-led products ranging from everyday living to luxury pieces for the home.
