M&S launches in The Hague
MARKS & Spencer will open a flagship store in The Hague today after returning to the Netherlands last year for the first time in more than a decade.
The retailer’s Dutch chief executive Marc Bolland said the 4,800 square metre store in the city centre will be its biggest on the continent so far, selling fashion, homeware products and food across three floors.
M&S returned to the Netherlands in April last year with a small store in Amsterdam’s Kalverstraat shopping street and is currently trialling six Simply Food stores at BP petrol stations.
The retailer, which returned to Europe in 2010 after a ten-year hiatus, said The Hague store will be followed by the launch of a 6,100 square metre flagship store on The Rokin in Amsterdam in 2016.
