New opening at Thistles

Thistles, Stirling is set to welcome Danish lifestyle brand Søstrene Grene this summer.

Søstrene Grene, the Danish family-owned retailer known for its beautiful, Scandinavian-inspired homewares, kitchen essentials, crafts and much more will be opening next to Superdrug.

To mark their arrival,  Søstrene Grene’s Group CEO and co-owner Mikkel Grene said: “We are of course very happy to be opening our seventh Scottish store in beautiful Stirling, as this brings us one step closer to our goal of opening 100 stores across the UK by 2027.

“We are looking forward to welcoming shoppers to the wonderful world of Søstrene Grene, where there is room to take a little break from an often-hectic everyday life and explore our affordable product range of home décor, crafting, small furniture and much more.”

This spring also saw Pandora unveil a brand-new, upsized location within Thistles. The beloved brand, known for their customisable charm bracelets, now occupies the former Fraser Hart unit with a significantly expanded space of 2,649sq ft - up from its previous 533 sq ft unit. This allows for a wider range of collections and enhanced shopping experience.

Gary Turnbull, Centre Director at Thistles said: “We’re delighted to welcome Søstrene Grene to Thistles. These exciting additions reflect our ongoing commitment to bringing fresh, in-demand retailers to the heart of Stirling.

“We’re also thrilled that Pandora has a bigger and better space. And with the reopening of our car park, it’s an exciting time for the centre and our shoppers.”

Søstrene Grene will open to customers this summer, with an exact date to be announced soon.
