Newmark Group has advised British luxury lifestyle brand Fairfax & Favor on securing two new stores in the towns of Southwold, Suffolk and Shaftesbury, Dorset, as part of the brand’s continued retail expansion.
The new stores, which are both situated in former banks at the heart of each town, align with Fairfax & Favor’s commitment to securing characterful stores that reflect its heritage.
Newmark has worked closely with Fairfax & Favor since 2020, acting as the brand’s sole retail property consultant and securing key locations in Helmsley, Stamford, Stow and Marlow. The addition of Southwold and Shaftesbury further strengthens the brand’s footprint across the UK as it continues on its expansion strategy.
Angus Harper, associate director at Newmark, commented: “We are delighted to support Fairfax & Favor in securing two new locations. Whilst most expansion strategies start in major cities, we focused on staying true to Fairfax & Favor’s rural DNA by acquiring sites in characterful market towns. Many of Fairfax & Favor’s customers will travel significant distances so it is important that these destinations are of a quality that are worth the journey. Each Fairfax & Favor store sits within a beautiful historic building within a quintessentially British town.
“The brand’s unique approach to expansion has proven highly successful, and we look forward to further work together as the brand continues to grow its retail presence in charming locations throughout the UK.”
Fairfax & Favor remains committed to further expansion, with more store openings planned as part of its long-term retail growth strategy.
