Printemps is full of novelties for its 90th anniversaryPrintemps is full of novelties for its 90th anniversary

In Lille (Nord), Printemps celebrates the 125 years of its building and the 90 years of its opening. But 2019 is also the arrival of new brands such as Aroma-Zone, Made in Design and Méo Cafés in the department store. That required a re-organisation on the 3rd floor of Printemps since the aromatherapy sign occupies a space of 450 m². Customers who love natural cosmetics will be able to have a great time starting this Friday, September 27, 2019.

The Spring of Lille in figures.

  • 12,600m²: the flagship of Lille is (apart from Haussmann in Paris) the largest store in the Printemps network.
  • €80mn: this is the turnover achieved over one year in Printemps de Lille, almost 3 times more than other stores in the network (still not counting that of Haussmann).
  • 3mn visitors a year come to shop in Lille. Of these, 10% are foreigners (80% of whom are Belgians).
  • 450 people work at the Printemps de Lille.

More than 500 brands are present, 10% of them are renewed each year, 15% are exclusive in Spring.

In a spacious and green corner, customers will be able to find the whole concept. Thus, the 1700 references sold online will be available in stores: famous essential oils or plants, through the neutral bases to customize and all the equipment of the perfect little chemist. Aroma-Zone also offers many workshops to learn how to make your own products. In addition to the arrival of Aroma-Zone, the Printemps de Lille inaugurated a few days ago a new space, 120 m² this time, still on the 3rd floor. It is home to Made in Design, the European leader in the online sale of decorative and decorative objects that Printemps bought in May 2019.
