Peel Retail & Leisure has announced that Berghaus, the renowned outdoor brand, will open its second standalone UK store at Gloucester Quays, a top 10 UK outlet. Located near the picturesque Cotswolds, Gloucester Quays enhances its selection of outdoor retailers with the addition of Berghaus.
The new 2,117 sq ft store, set to launch this summer opposite Adidas, will cater to a variety of outdoor activities, including walking, mountaineering, and climbing. It will offer a wide selection of clothing, footwear, and equipment for both men and women. Inspired by nature, the store will feature a minimalist design, with life-like foliage on the exterior and wooden furniture and metal finishes with a weather-worn look inside. The changing rooms will boast a 360-degree landscape design inspired by the local countryside. This new premium concept is the first of its kind for Berghaus, with plans for expansion through 2025.
