Danish variety store Flying Tiger Copenhagen will open a new store at Trafford Centre on 14 February. 

The new 1,500 sq ft store, located on Upper Peel Avenue, will feature the brand’s core ranges alongside its seasonal love-themed products range to celebrate Valentine’s Day.

The shop will mark the brand’s 81st store in the UK, among a global footprint of over 1,000 stores in 36 different countries. 

The store opening will also create 16 new permanent job positions. 

Michael Burke, managing director for Flying Tiger Copenhagen UK and Ireland, said: “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.”

Kate Pearson, director of asset management Pradera Lateral – Trafford Centre’s Asset Managers, added: “Flying Tiger Copenhagen has an excellent reputation, bringing Scandinavian design and affordability to an enthusiastic customer base. We are sure Trafford Centre visitors will enthusiastically welcome this fantastic variety store to the centre.”
