Danish homeware brand announce plans to open Metrocentre shop

A hugely popular Danish homeware brand is set to open its second North East site very soon.

Søstrene Grene is set to open at Metrocentre in Gateshead, bringing its mix of affordable homewares and everyday essentials to the North East.

It will be the second of the brand’s North East sites after opening a shop in Newcastle’s Eldon Square last year.

“Each new store allows us to offer a shopping experience that combines creativity, practicality and a little inspiration for everyday living. Seeing our vision of accessible, beautifully designed products reach new regions is incredibly exciting.”
