Retailer Miniso opens new shop in centre:mk in Milton Keynes

The retailer MINISO has opened a new branch at the centre:mk shopping centre in Milton Keynes.

The Chinese lifestyle retail brand opened their 50th UK branch in the centre:mk with an event on Wednesday (29/10), opening a branch that will be offering over 1000 products.

MINISO has taken up residence in an outlet formerly occupied by Quiz next to Burger King in the centre:mk, with the retailer selling such goods as plush toys and character merchandise, stationery and creative supplies, tech accessories, home décor and storage solutions, beauty and self-care essentials, gift ideas, stocking fillers and snacks.

The opening is part of rapid expansion by the MINISO brand in the UK market, with the company having also recently opened branches in such places as Birmingham, Glasgow, Bromley, Telford and Edinburgh.

Kevin Duffy, centre director at Centre:mk, said in a statement, “MINISO’s decision to bring its popular brand to Centre:mk is a reflection of the centre’s vast catchment area, high footfall and our ability to attract global retailers, and a clear endorsement in both Milton Keynes and the strength of Centre:mk as a dominant regional centre.”
