Liverpool ONE is set to welcome a new retailer next week when Sky opens its first ever retail space in the city centre.
The new Sky flagship store, which will be based on South John Street, aims to bring Sky’s leading customer service and innovative pay TV, mobile and broadband products to the UK high street, under one roof, for the first time.
Sky says its store, which will be opening on October 26, will be separated into designated themed spaces, allowing customers to access advisors easily and safely across the shop.
Matthew Price, retail director, Sky UK, said: “Our new Sky shop will allow us to showcase the amazing benefits Sky has to offer to new and existing customers.
"Liverpool really stood out to us for this debut site and we’re pleased to be able to offer a safe environment in which people can shop for the latest innovative technology from Sky. We look forward to opening our doors and sharing the full experience with customers.”
The shop will have a dedicated ‘Customer Hub’, encouraging new customers to speak to advisors about the latest Sky innovations. Existing customers will be able to speak to advisors and receive advice around their current products.
All Sky shops will operate in line with the Government’s Covid-19 safety measures, including strict social distancing, mandatory facemasks and hand sanitiser available across the shop.
The Liverpool ONE shop will also feature a dedicated ‘Access All Areas’ stage. This stage will host various interactive experiences for customers.
Alison Clegg, director, asset management, Grosvenor Europe which owns Liverpool ONE, said: “The Sky UK debut will be a great addition to Liverpool ONE and further bolster our flagship line-up.
"We are excited that Sky has selected Liverpool ONE for its first physical retail shop as this new concept will be a real draw for our visitors and provide a unique experience that is not available anywhere else.
