Matalan to Open New Shops in Hampshire as Part of £25m Upgrade
- On June 9, 2025, Matalan announced a £25 million investment to open 10 new stores and upgrade 30 existing shops across the UK, including Hampshire.
- This investment comes after Matalan experienced a change in control early in 2023, when a consortium of lenders assumed leadership to support its transformation programme.
- The transformation will improve store layouts, enhance department definitions, relocate fitting rooms and tills, add faster self-service tills, and launch a new shopping app.
- Matalan’s property director, James Dorling, highlighted that the brand has been an integral part of UK communities for four decades, and that the recent investment represents a significant shift in their strategic approach.
- The programme aims to create a better shopping experience for loyal customers and introduce Matalan to new consumers while supporting long-term estate modernization.
