Dunelm eyes 10 central London sites

Homeware chain Dunelm has mandated agency GCW to find it up to 10 London sites over the coming year. GCW has already helped the company secure a 4,500 sq ft shop at Westfield London in White City, W12, set to open later this year. Dunelm opened six shops during its previous financial year. The retailer reported “robust” sales in the three months to the end of September, with revenue up by 3.5% to £403m. Nick Wilkinson, chief executive officer of Dunelm, said: “This is our first step into central London, where we have ambitions to further expand our presence, alongside wider plans to deliver our next wave of store openings across the UK as we gain confidence in showcasing our ranges in a variety of different sizes and formats.”
