A much-loved Danish store has found a new home at the Trafford Centre on Valentine's Day.

Variety store Flying Tiger Copenhagen will be opening its doors at 10am on the 'day of love' to welcome shoppers for the first time.

After a sneak-peek the night before, the store is stocked and ready to open with a range of items available from modern home décor to colourful everyday purchases such as stationery, party supplies, kitchen essentials and children’s toys.

Creating 16 new jobs, the 1,500 square feet store will open on Upper Peel Avenue, next to the LEGO store.

Michael Burke, Managing Director for Flying Tiger Copenhagen UK & Ireland said: "Flying Tiger Copenhagen aims to inspire and make every day extraordinary through affordable, design-led products.

"The opening of our Trafford Centre store marks our first opening in 2025 and expansion of our presence in the UK, bringing our unique shopping experience to even more customers.

With items priced from £1 - the store is an affordable option in contrast to several Trafford Centre stores for the more luxurious shopper - here utility and fun are the decision makers.

To celebrate the launch, the first 200 customers to visit the new store today will receive an exclusive goody bag filled with items from the latest collection.

The brand's friendly mascot will also be making special appearances throughout the day to entertain visitors of all ages.

Simon Layton, Centre Director at Trafford Centre, said: "Flying Tiger Copenhagen is a fantastic addition to our retail offering, a real treasure trove of goodies and something for everyone.

"We’re looking forward to welcoming them on 14th February and we’re sure that visitors will love exploring the new store."
