Managing director of Habitat, Clare Askem said: "It's a really exciting time for Habitat as we launch our first major stand-alone stores in ten years. Stores are an important part of our growth strategy as we know that our customers love to be inspired by our furniture and furnishings in immersive store settings, so we're thrilled that these launches will bring us to key locations in Brighton and Westfield London where we have a lot of Habitat fans.
"As our digital business has grown, there has also been a real desire from customers to see Habitat on the high street. By investing for the future of the brand in this way, as well as continuing to differentiate ourselves with modern, statement design from our in-house Habitat Design Studio, we're well-placed to continue our heritage of bringing well designed, inventive and affordable products to people's homes."
