Luxury fashion retailer Arne has signed for a new store on New Cathedral Street at Manchester Arndale on a 10-year lease.
The brand, which specialises in elevated everyday essentials, including contemporary menswear, footwear and accessories, intends to open the 2,270 sq ft store later this month.
Arne opened its first permanent bricks-and-mortar flagship store in Liverpool in September 2025, following a series of successful pop-ups.
Scott Linard, portfolio manager for M&G Real Estate, said: “Arne’s selection of New Cathedral Street for one of its first physical locations is a strong vote in confidence from yet another digitally native brand, following Alo Yoga, Represent and Arc’teryx. This addition further enhances our premium fashion offer and reflects our focus on attracting best-in-class brands that resonate with our visitors and reinforces our position as the North West’s home of fashion.”
Steve Gray, head of European retail asset management at Global Mutual, added: “We are delighted to welcome Arne as it takes this next step into physical retail. This move highlights the strength of New Cathedral Street as a destination for brands looking to connect with customers in a highly engaging environment.”
Metis Real Estate and Time Retail Partners are Manchester Arndale’s retained letting agents.
