Dune continues international expansion

Leading footwear and accessories retailer the Dune Group

is eyeing further international expansion following the opening of new stores in Poland and Libya.
 
The Dune Group, which brands include Dune, Pied a Terre and Bertie, formed in March 2009 with the acquisition by Dune of Shoe Studio. Dune’s first store in Poland opened on the 9th June 2010 in the award winning shopping mall Stary Browar in Poznan and stocks the ladies and accessories collection. Another opening in Tripoli marks the brand’s arrival in Libya, an emerging country being tipped as the "New Dubai" with an assortment of international brands heading their way. The group confirmed that further locations are in the pipeline to expand the store’s portfolio in this region.

Dune’s flagship stores are in Covent Garden, London and Buchanan Street, Glasgow. Recent openings have been in Westfield Shopping Centre in London and Liverpool One, Liverpool. Its international division operates under license in the Middle East where there are 12 stores and Moscow, Russia.
