Søstrene Grene Leeds Opening: Why Everyone’s Talking About This Scandi-Style Store

If you’re a fan of stylish homeware that’s as budget-friendly as it is beautiful, here’s some exciting news. Søstrene Grene, the beloved Danish brand known for its cosy Scandinavian designs, has opened its doors in Leeds at Trinity Shopping Centre. And let’s just say, it wasn’t your average store launch.

Shoppers treated to a truly special opening

On 24th January 2025, Søstrene Grene officially launched in spectacular style. Picture this: ballerinas twirling gracefully to the sound of a live string duo, while a red carpet welcomed excited shoppers eager to check out the new space. The first 100 people in the queue walked away with some serious goodies—a free large, tufted rug and a goodie bag stuffed with gifts. Not too shabby, right?

It’s no wonder there’s been so much buzz. This is Søstrene Grene’s fourth store in Yorkshire, and it’s set to bring a bit of that sought-after ‘hygge’ to the city. (If you’re new to the term, ‘hygge’ is all about creating a warm, cosy atmosphere—think candles, cushions, and a great cuppa on a rainy day.)

What can you find in the store?

The Leeds store will offer everything from seasonal collections to quirky and unique designs for every corner of your home. Whether you’re after contemporary interiors, soft furnishings, kitchen gadgets, or adorable children’s toys, Søstrene Grene has you covered.

In true Scandi fashion, the brand focuses on keeping things simple yet stylish. It’s the kind of place where you can grab everything you need to refresh your home without breaking the bank. Need a new throw for your sofa? Done. Fancy an eco-friendly notebook or some party supplies? Sorted.

Trinity Leeds welcomes its newest addition

Steven Foster, Centre Director at Trinity Leeds, couldn’t contain his excitement about the opening. He said:

“There’s been so much excitement around the arrival of Søstrene Grene ever since it was announced. It’s been fantastic to see how the people of Leeds have really embraced the brand and been eager to see what’s in store.”

And honestly, it’s easy to see why. With more than 120 shops and over 40 restaurants, coffee shops, and bars, Trinity Leeds has become the city’s go-to destination for a bit of everything—shopping, dining, and now, a dose of Danish charm.

Why Leeds?

Jonathan Cooper, UK Joint Venture Partner at Søstrene Grene, explained why Leeds was the perfect spot for their next store:

“The new store offers a fresh and inspiring space for shoppers to discover our Scandi-inspired designs, and we’re sure it will resonate with the city’s vibrancy. Leeds has such a rich and energetic character, and we’re excited to see how the store becomes part of its thriving retail scene.”
