The new shop on Argyle Street will be the company’s second in Scotland, following the opening of their flagship branch on Edinburgh’s Princes Street last year.

In a post shared on social media, Uniqlo’s chief operating officer Alessandro Dudech said: “Uniqlo is proud to continue investing in the UK retail landscape, further strengthening our presence in Scotland.”.

With the opening set for Thursday, here is everything you need to know about Uniqlo Glasgow.

Uniqlo’s regular opening times will see the store open from 9am to 7pm from Monday to Saturday, with reduced hours on Sunday, from 10am until 6pm.

Where is Glasgow’s new Uniqlo?

Glasgow’s first Uniqlo store is located at 135-153 Argyle Street.

The new Scottish branch will take over two large retail spaces inside the St Enoch’s Centre, including the former St Enoch Picture Theatre. It will span 1,100 square metres across two floors.

New Argyle Street store will continue Uniqlo’s partnership with Social Bite

For the opening of the new Glasgow Uniqlo, the company will continue to partner with social enterprise Social Bite as it works towards ending homelessness.

As a result of this partnership, Uniqlo is working with Social Bite to develop recruitment pathways, including the creation of in-store opportunities, for those being supported by the charity.

The initiative will also see Uniqlo staff in Glasgow volunteering at the Social Bite Cafe and assisting with clothing donations.

It is just one of the retailer’s local collaborations, with further partnerships and workshops to come.
