Loaf to open first store in Scotland

HOME & DIY

Furniture retailer Loaf will be opening its first showroom in Scotland at Edinburgh’s Straiton Retail Park.

Due to launch on 9 February, it will be the brand’s biggest store to date at 9,100 square feet.

In addition to selling Loaf’s signature range of sofas, beds and handmade furniture, the space will feature a mattress testing area on its mezzanine. There will also be 800 square feet dedicated to the display of smaller homeware items such as mugs, candles and hot water bottles, which customers can take away on the day.

Loaf’s founder Charlie Marshall said: “It’s high time people in Scotland had a bit of Loaf on their doorstep so they can kick their shoes off in style. Our new Edinburgh Shack is packed full of our squishy sofas, beds, cabinetry, lighting and plenty of Loafing Supplies: all basic requirements for a happy life in the slow lane! We can’t wait to open the doors.”
