The Foot Factory has launched its new 7,000 sq ft store in Bow Street Mall, signalling a new phase of growth for the well-established footwear and lifestyle retailer.
The relocation comes after plans were submitted to redevelop the company’s former unit into banqueting facilities for the neighbouring Haslem Hotel. The change presented an opportunity for The Foot Factory to enhance its store layout and refresh its retail offering.
The new store features a spacious and contemporary interior, bringing together leading international brands such as UGG, New Balance, Crocs, Carhartt WIP and Napapijri under one roof.
As part of the expansion, The Foot Factory has increased its workforce with the addition of five new staff members.
Garth Wylie, Director of The Foot Factory said: “We’ve been part of Lisburn’s retail scene for many years, and this move allows us to grow while staying close to our loyal customers. The new space gives us additional room to showcase much-loved brands, with an improved shopping experience — especially as we head into the busy Christmas season.”
Karen Marshall, Bow Street Mall Centre Manager said: “The Foot Factory’s expansion demonstrates continued investment and confidence in Bow Street Mall as a key shopping destination.”
A local store with a global reach
From its Lisburn base, The Foot Factory has quietly built a strong online presence, with over 140,000 customers worldwide and more than 400,000 pairs of shoes shipped across the globe. The brand’s growing reputation for stocking sought-after items continues to draw increasing international customers.
The Bow Street Mall store opens just in time for Christmas, offering a wide selection of premium footwear and clothing from cosy UGGs through to limited edition Crocs, making it a perfect stop for festive gift shopping.
