M&S unveils new Bath flagship store

M&S has opened the doors to its brand-new 83,000 sqft flagship store at SouthGate, Bath.

Across four floors, the new store – relocated from M&S’ previous Stall Street location – offers M&S Food, Fashion, Home & Beauty.

On the top floor of the store, customers will find a curated homeware collection, including the M&S x Kelly Hoppen homeware edit.

Bath SouthGate is one of more than 20 new or renewed stores M&S is launching across the UK in the second half of this financial year.

Natalie Jordan, store manager at Bath SouthGate, has worked at M&S for over a decade and leads a team of 280. She says: “We have a fantastic history in Bath, dating back to 1895, and it is brilliant to be investing in a brand-new flagship store in the city centre. Our focus is now delivering the trusted value and exceptional quality we’re known for – alongside a touch of that M&S magic."

Laurence Budden, senior asset manager at British Land, adds: “We are delighted to welcome Marks and Spencer to SouthGate Bath – they are the perfect addition to our strong line-up and further enhance the mix for our visitors. SouthGate’s prominent city centre location and strong transport links create a compelling offer, and with this the scheme is now fully let.

“This opening is a great way to start a transformational year for SouthGate, building on other recent openings, including Sunglass Hut, Zara and Rituals, with more exciting news to come.”
