Jewellery brand Astrid & Miyu has opened a new store at the Hanningtons Estate in Brighton, on North Street. GCW has helped Redevco secure the lease which is the latest in a string of lettings in one of the city’s most sought after pitches.
Hanningtons Estate is historically one of the most important mixed use destinations in Brighton. Redevco has remodelled the former department store and surrounding properties, and in doing so has extended Brighton’s traditional aspirational shopping district, from East Street into North Street.
GCW has secured a letting to contemporary jeweller Astrid & Miyu. The ethical brand opened its new North Street store in December, offering its renowned range of delicate jewellery and fear-free piercings. They were drawn to Redevco’s curated retail environment that blends the best of Brighton with independent, national, and international brands.
Astrid & Miyu joins a vibrant mix of recent arrivals at the 1.3-acre Harringtons Estate. In recent months, GCW has secured lettings with the likes of White Stuff, furniture business & Halt, and US leisure brand Lululemon.
In addition, Redevco has developed Hanningtons Lane, acting as a natural extension to Brighton’s Lanes district, combining retail, food and beverage, eye-catching architecture, and street art. GCW is helping bring the space to life with a rolling programme of temporary pop-up lettings.
Redevco Real Estate Asset Manager Chris Baker says: “We are delighted to welcome Astrid & Miyu to Hanningtons Estate. Along with GCW and joint agents Time Retail Partners, we have attracted an exciting range of brands aligned with the Brighton vibe. We look forward to adding to that mix throughout 2023.”
