Trafford Centre has announced the grand opening of Flying Tiger Copenhagen, the much-loved Danish variety store, on Friday 14 February.
The 1,500 square feet store will open on Upper Peel Avenue, next to the LEGO store, creating 16 new jobs for the local community.
Known for its playful and practical design philosophy, the brand’s eclectic product range spans from modern home décor and fun seasonal ranges to colourful everyday items such as stationery, party supplies, kitchen essentials and children’s toys.
To celebrate the launch, the first 200 customers to visit the new store on 14 February will receive an exclusive goody bag filled with items from the latest collection. Plus, the brand’s friendly mascot will be making special appearances throughout the day to entertain visitors of all ages.
Michael Burke, Managing Director for Flying Tiger Copenhagen UK & Ireland, commented: “Flying Tiger Copenhagen aims to inspire and make every day extraordinary through affordable, design-led products. The opening of our Trafford Centre store marks our first opening in 2025 and expansion of our presence in the UK, bringing our unique shopping experience to even more customers. What’s more, Trafford Centre has been a target destination for Flying Tiger Copenhagen for a number of years as we focus on store opening opportunities in the North West of the UK, so we look forward to seeing how visitors to the centre embrace the new offering.”
Simon Layton, Centre Director at Trafford Centre, added: “Flying Tiger Copenhagen is a fantastic additional to our retail offering, offering a real treasure trove of goodies and something for everyone. We’re looking forward to welcoming them on 14 February, and we’re sure that visitors will love exploring the new store.”
