JYSK in the UK opened its first ‘new look’ Concept 3.0 store only in July 2018, however with further growth plans and refurbishments it will have rapidly turned over half of the UK store estate into this ‘new look’ store concept by August 2020.

Country Manager for JYSK UK, David Ashton, said: “We are planning serious growth here in the UK, that includes doubling store numbers between now at 2021. We saw a fantastic Easter period, where JYSK outperformed the UK retail market for customer and sales growth, including two stand-out areas for us; HOMEWARE +69% and GARDEN +29%.

“We know that we have a great offer and clearly our customers can see that too.

“I am confident that our customers will agree we have one of the very best garden furniture ranges in the UK and with our new homewares we are having to push an extra 100% of stock into stores to keep up with the demand.

“It certainly is an exciting time for JYSK and I cannot wait to welcome more new customers to visit us at 9am on Saturday, May 4 for our Lincoln Grand Opening weekend – with some extra special offers.”
