Woolwich Shoe Zone to reopen after refit

On this episode of Talking Shop I’m joined by Alain Bejjani—former Group CEO of Middle East retail giant Majid Al Futtaim, and author of the definitive new book, NEXT: Leading Through the New Realities. Drawing on his childhood in war-torn Beirut, and his experience steering a $9.5bn dollar retail and lifestyle empire through a global pandemic, Alain brings an unmatched perspective on leadership under pressure. Today, we break down his crisis survival playbook for retailers operating in distress. We discuss why resilience must always outpace efficiency, the four assets a brand must protect at all costs, and how to turn macro-turmoil into a long-term direction that scales.

Shoe Zone is set to reopen its Woolwich store on 27 May after it closed for a month to undergo a modern refit to improve customers’ shopping experience. 

Located on the partially pedestrianised Powis Street, the refitted store will stock brands such as Lotus, Heavenly Feet, Jana Softline, S Oliver and Lunar for the first time, along with its own-brand shoes and accessories.

Shoe Zone said the refit would bring more variety to the store, as well as access to footwear that was previously unavailable to shoppers in Woolwich.

Anai Chen will continue her role as store manager.

She said: “We can’t wait to welcome customers new and old into the updated store. We have a fantastic selection of offers and new styles ideal for the upcoming summer season.”

Anthony Smith, CEO at Shoe Zone, added: “We’re excited to re-open our Woolwich store with a new look and a brand-new access to even more brands, as well as our own popular range of stylish and affordable shoes and accessories.

“We’re opening just in time for the summer. Our new store will make buying shoes for the warmer weather and shoes for the return to school, that bit easier. From sandals and clogs to more formal styles and school shoes, you’ll be able to get them all here.”
