Frasers Group has confirmed that it is set to open three new FLANNELS stores in the Republic of Ireland by the end of 2023, advancing the luxury retailer's investment into the Irish market.

The 30,000 sq ft store new flagship will open in the former Clerys Department store on O’Connell Street between November 2022 and January 2023 and will be the retailer's first flagship outside the UK.

The new Flannels stores will trade the same brands as in its UK outlets, including Burberry, Off-White, and Balenciaga, offering the same range of services including Flannels Beauty and pop-up concepts.
