Online fashion group Net-A-Porter is to open its UK head office at Westfield London shopping centre in White City, W12.
The group, which includes online luxury fashion retailer Net-A-Porter.com and fashion outlet theOutnet.com, will occupy 42,000 sq ft above the shopping centre’s luxury Village.
Australian developer Westfield expects footfall at Westfield London to reach 22m for the first year – 10% up on original expectations.
Michael Gutman, managing director of Westfield UK/Europe, said: “The Net-A-Porter group are market leaders in online fashion and as such we’re delighted that they’ve chosen Westfield London for the centre of their UK operations.
“Westfield London is quickly establishing itself as a London icon synonymous with fashion, luxury and destination shopping.
“The opening of Net-A-Porter’s offices early next year will add to the diverse offer which continues to grow at the centre.”
Natalie Massenet, chairman of Net-A-Porter, said: “We are very excited about the possibilities presented by our office move to Westfield London.
“It is a fitting location and a substantial space that will allow us to increase our organisational capacity and make real headway towards achieving our growth goals.”
Cushman & Wakefield advised Westfield; Noble Harris advised Net-A-Porter.
