Mango boosts UK expansion with Chester debut

As it accelerates its global retail strategy, Mango has launched a new womenswear store in Chester, marking its debut in the historic English city and reinforcing its long-term focus on the UK market.

Located at the Broughton shopping centre in north-western England, the new store marks Mango’s entry into Chester with a space dedicated entirely to womenswear. The boutique adopts the brand’s signature New Med design concept, blending Mediterranean warmth with sustainable materials and a fluid architectural layout. Shoppers will find a curated mix of new arrivals and enduring wardrobe staples from Mango’s women’s collections.

Mango has maintained a steady presence in the UK since 1999, steadily expanding its retail footprint. By the close of 2024, the brand expects to operate over 80 bricks-and-mortar locations nationwide, complementing its online channels and third-party partnerships. The Chester opening forms part of Mango’s 4E Strategic Plan (2024–2026), which targets surpassing 100 UK stores by the end of the year.

The brand’s expansion ambitions reach far beyond the UK. In recent weeks, Mango has launched five new stores across Italy—in Teramo, Naples, Sicily, and Chieti—further strengthening its presence in key southern European cities. Simultaneously, it continues to grow in the United States, marking a milestone last June with the opening of its 50th location in the country.

Founded in 1984 by Isak Andic, Mango now has a footprint in over 120 markets worldwide, supported by a global network of more than 2,800 stores. In fiscal year 2024, the company reported revenue of €3.339 billion, reflecting a 7.6% year-on-year increase. As part of its current strategic roadmap, Mango aims to achieve €4 billion in annual sales and open 500 new stores globally by the end of 2026.
