Mountain Warehouse has revealed that it will open 50 new stores next year.
According to The Times, the outdoor retailer is ramping up its expansion strategy driven by a surge in demand for in-person shopping experiences.
Last month, the retailer reported £386m in sales and £26.2m pre-tax profit for the year to 25 February. The financial performance was led by the opening of 28 new stores, including the first in Brisbane Australia.
The new 50 locations set to open next year would bring the total of shops to 370 stores across nine countries.
Mountain Warehouse founder and CEO Mark Neal said: “We think there is lots of life left in lots of our high streets.
“All that death of the high street stuff has been a bit overdone. We’re definitely very positive about physical retail at the moment.”
Mountain Warehouse has been contacted for comment.
