A major American fashion brand is set to make its mark in Glasgow.
Coach, known for its luxury handbags and accessories, is expected to open a store on Buchanan Street in spring 2027, according to window signage now displayed at the site.
About Coach
Founded in New York in 1941, Coach is known for its leather goods, clothing and accessories, and has become one of the best-known names in affordable luxury fashion.
A boost for Buchanan Street
The arrival will give shoppers another luxury option on Buchanan Street, which is already home to a number of major international fashion and lifestyle brands.
The street remains one of Glasgow's key shopping destinations, and the new store is set to strengthen its luxury retail offering.
Good news for the city centre
The announcement comes as Glasgow city centre prepares for its busiest trading period of the year, with the St Enoch Square Christmas market now open and the Christmas Village due in George Square.
A new big-name store is a welcome sign at a time when town and city centres across Scotland are under pressure from online shopping and rising costs, and when figures this week showed empty shop units rising sharply in nearby East Dunbartonshire.
Coach has not yet confirmed an opening date, and further details are expected closer to the launch.
