Liverpool ONE Reports 8% Sales Growth Amid New Brand Openings

Liverpool ONE has recorded an 8% rise in sales over the past year, defying broader national retail trends. The 1.65 million sq ft open-air complex, a prominent retail and entertainment hub in Liverpool City Centre, welcomed several high-profile brands that contributed to this positive performance.

Attracting 33 million visitors annually, Liverpool ONE expanded its retail mix with the addition of Sephora, KIKO Milano, Miniso, POP Mart, Wingstop, UNIQLO, and ARNE. These new entrants have played a significant role in boosting sales across multiple categories.

Health and beauty sales surged by 31% year-on-year, driven largely by the introduction of Sephora and KIKO Milano. The giftware sector also experienced notable growth, increasing by nearly 20%, supported by Miniso and POP Mart’s openings.

Accessories and jewellery sales rose by 4%, aided by Monica Vinader’s recent launch. The category is expected to strengthen further with Lovisa’s opening in May and Accessorize scheduled for June. Entertainment offerings contributed to an 8% increase in sales, with retailers such as Flight Club, Gravity MAX, and Odeon performing well.

Mixed fashion sales saw a remarkable 66% uplift, bolstered by the arrival of ARNE and UNIQLO’s men’s collections within the last 12 months, enhancing Liverpool ONE’s fashion appeal.

Brendan Hattam, Centre Director at Liverpool ONE, commented: “As a leading retail and entertainment destination, Liverpool ONE is constantly evolving to offer our guests a diverse mix of retail, entertainment and leisure options. The arrival of global brands such as Sephora, Pop Mart and UNIQLO and locals favourite ARNE have further enhanced our offering and helped drive sales. We have so much to look forward to at Liverpool ONE over the coming year, with Lovisa now open and Lefties and Accessorize still to come, alongside many more exciting brands yet to be announced. We’re looking forward to building on this success throughout 2026 and beyond.”

Liverpool ONE features over 170 stores, bars, restaurants, and leisure experiences, including a 14-screen cinema and Gravity MAX, which offers 12 immersive activities. The destination spans five areas—Paradise Street, South John Street, Peter’s Lane, Hanover Street, and the Leisure Terrace overlooking Chavasse Park—and includes a five-acre park.

As one of Europe’s leading retail and entertainment destinations, Liverpool ONE continues to support initiatives aimed at fostering stronger, more sustainable, and vibrant communities.
