Over the last few months, Boxpark have announced exciting developments, they got their license for Boxhall in Bristol approved and secured a Boxpark site in Manchester.
Now they have confirmed that their ambitious expansions plans are able to push forwards following a multimillion-pound injection from private equity firm LDC investments.
Boxpark will continue to be led by founder and CEO Roger Wade, CFO Simon Champion and COO Ben McLaughlin. John Leslie who currently holds the position of non-executive director will become the non-executive chairman.
Speaking of the investment, Roger Wade said, “After such a difficult 18 months in the sector, we have secured a new partnership that recognises our unique proposition and growth potential. It will enable us to accelerate the rollout of new sites in London and into major cities such as Bristol and Manchester. This is such an exciting time for the business as we approach our ten-year anniversary later this year, and I am proud to have such an incredible team behind it who have all worked extremely hard with the added challenges of covid-19.”
Boxpark create hugely successful, award winning, shopping and dining destinations. Having started as a pop-up shopping mall in Shoreditch in 2011 Boxpark now has permanent sites in Shoreditch, Croydon and Wembley.
Innovation and creativity has always been a hallmark of Boxpark. This fundamental quality can be seen across each development that Boxpark have made. This began with the use of shipping containers to create a food market with boutique spaces for shopping retailers. Through to Boxpark Croydon with its famous events space and eclectic array of food vendors. Onto Boxpark Wembley which pushed forward the integration of outlets where you can Eat. Drink. Play.
It is expected that as Boxpark continues to grow we will see further unexpected concepts and features which create a unique vibe for each location.
