Marie Méro celebrates expansion year with
shop opening in Bruges
The 12th concept store of the Belgian label is bathed in the new shop concept and housed in a protected monument
The cherry on the cake for Marie Méro's growth spurt.
On 30 August, the Aalter-based fashion label will open the doors of
its 12th concept store in the heart of Bruges.
Fans of the Belgian fashion brand will be welcomed in 160 m² of shopping experience and expertise. The shop at Geldmuntstraat number 26, is housed in a late-Gothic deep house that has been protected as a monument because of its general interest since 1991. In addition, the design of the shop builds on the new and contemporary Marie Méro shop concept in which warmth and security are central.
‘In this shop, too, we are implementing the new shop concept that puts our DNA in
forward in the best possible way.
Think soft materials, atmospheric lighting and organic shapes.
The customer experience comes first and that starts outside.
The 7m window and classicist bay window make
passers-by pause to consider this gem.’ says Steven Van
der Elst, CEO Marie Méro proudly.
Conquering the Belgian market 2024 is an important year for Marie Méro. Earlier this year, the brand opened two of its own concept stores in Kortrijk and Waasland Shopping. Together with the opening in Bruges, the brand is thus expanding its own shops strongly in the Belgian market.
‘Customers are looking for expertise and a positive shopping experience.
Thanks to the opening of three own shops in city centres and in
Waasland Shopping, we are meeting this growing demand.
Our own outlets are gaining in importance in 2024, which is why
we implemented a completely new shop concept in which a natural
natural flow and thoughtful design are the key to success
are.’ concludes Ruben van der Elst, CEO Marie Méro.
