Ulster Weavers opens doors to first store

Home textiles licensee opens fully branded and stocked outlet in Banbridge, NI.

Home textiles company Ulster Weavers has kick started an ambitious expansion programme – opening the doors of its first ever store.

The store – which is located in The Outlet in Banbridge, Northern Ireland – is named Ulster Weavers and sells the licensee’s complete range of homeware and textiles, including fashion accessories brand Story Horse and home accessories brand LoveOlli and fabric brands, Spence Bryson and Moygashel.

It officially opened its doors on Thursday, November 23, offering customers 50% off everything for the first weekend only.

The store is the first step of a much wider expansion plan. The branded outlet boasts 2,200sq ft. and will be Ulster Weavers’ flagship store.

Kenneth Webb, md of Ulster Weavers, commented: “It’s always been my dream to get into retail and see the full Ulster Weavers offering displayed in a retail store.

“It’s so exciting that we have a chance to bring everything together in one place, including Story Horse, LoveOlli and our 100% Irish linen fabrics too.”
