GPE has announced today it has let 6,900 sq ft of retail space on a 10 year lease at 6/7 Portman Square, Orchard Court, W1 to luxury brand for professional-grade home appliances, Gaggenau. The brand will relocate from its current unit at 40 Wigmore Street, doubling its footprint occupying a prominent position on Portman Square.
Gaggenau is set to commence extensive refurbishment works in the coming months and it will be the anchor of GPE's newly marketed 'Portman & Wigmore', which includes 1/9 Portman Square and 132/142 Wigmore Street, W1; creating a striking new location for high end retail and showroom use. Gaggenau's flagship will provide high-quality home appliances, with an emphasis on innovation.
Sarah Goldman, Head of Retail at GPE, commented: "We are delighted that Gaggenau will be opening its new flagship at Portman Square. As one of the leading luxury home appliance brands, the decision to relocate from globally recognised Wigmore St and increase its footprint within the West End highlights the appeal of our central location at Portman & Wigmore, and shows we are committed to strengthening the retail offer."
