The Uniqlo fashion brand was founded in 1984 by Japanese Tadashi Yanai and has over time become a world-leading company with more than 2,200 stores. Since the first Swedish store opened in August 2018, the brand has become a popular player on the local fashion scene. This fall, it is time for the brand's second Swedish store to open in the country's largest shopping center, Westfield Mall of Scandinavia.
"Uniqlo is one of the most appreciated fashion brands in the world and we are therefore very much looking forward to welcoming them to us at Westfield Mall of Scandinavia. Through the opening of Uniqlo's new store, we want to optimize our customer offering, strengthen our international character and attract even more visitors," says Sofia Rundström, center manager at Westfield Mall of Scandinavia.
"Sweden is an inspiring country that is at the forefront when it comes to innovation, sustainability and design. Areas that correlate well with Uniqlo's philosophy. Two years after the successful arrival in the Swedish market, we are now very happy to launch a new store in Westfield Mall of Scandinavia. We look forward to offering our unique Lifewear concept in such a vibrant and leading place," says Mikiya Kurosu, COO at Uniqlo Scandinavia.
