Oliver Bonas has decided to expand its presence at Cabot Circus in Bristol by relocating and almost doubling the size of its existing store at the shopping centre.

When it opens this month, the new shop in Quakers Friars will feature the full Oliver Bonas range of fashion, jewellery, homeware and gifts over 4,800 sq ft of space.

The only Oliver Bonas store in Bristol will now trade alongside aspirational retailers Cos, Hugo Boss, Michael Kors and Ted Baker in the Quakers Friars piazza in the grounds of Cabot Circus. The new store format will be design-driven and experiential, said the brand.

“We are excited to be relocating to a more spacious store in Bristol, near historic Quakers Friars. From store layout, to the fixtures and fittings themselves, our in-house creative team will design the new space, allowing us to offer our full collection across fashion and homeware,” commented an Oliver Bonas spokesperson.

Since launching the first Oliver Bonas store in 1993, the brand has grown significantly, and now has 60 stores across the UK. Hammerson, the owner of Cabot Circus, said the upsize follows a trend for retailers “to invest in larger, more creative stores that allow them to seamlessly engage with customers and showcase their brand more effectively.”
