Product “Dress to impress”, “new season offers” & “occasion wear” has been established by Warehouse as usp’s…..
However, in reality they have struggled with finding their niche in the marketplace and have never really secured their target market.
This has resulted in mismatched clothing that has been described as “dull” and “boring”with lack of interest from the intended target market.
Product continued...Therefore…….
The clothing collection has been redesigned to fit the needs of the consumer. Taking inspiration from the catwalk and the major fashion houses globally, warehouse has created new lines that are for the fashion driven on a low cost budget
After analysing the current ten fashion trends,
Five were carefully selected that fully represented Warehouse’s brand personality and brand image. The five key trends that were selected allow warehouse to meet their customer’s needs effectively
With the addition of an exclusive designer collaboration with Stella McCartney, warehouse has encapsulated british fashion at its best!

Helping the cause!Warehouse has proven to be ethically responsible in many areas of their business, however so far they have not partaken in any cause-related marketing activities.
“Cause-related marketing is a type of marketing involving the cooperative efforts for a non=profit business and a non-profit organisation for mutual benefit”
In correlation with the Stella McCartney at Warehouse range, 15% of each bag sale is being donated to Unicef who are currently in Ecuador providing financial aid to those in need due to the recent disaster.
When any garments or accessories from the five other fashion trends are purchased, one piece of clothing will be sent to Ecuador to help clothe a child in need.

Store environmentThe Warehouse employee is very much apart of our brand as they contribute to the store environment and provide a service that will be hard for our customers to forget…
The warehouse employee is:
Approachable, helpful, friendly, enthusiastic, confident, wears the brand with pride, aware of promotions and discounts, has great product knowledge, easy to talk to, and fashionable.
Before you see the store, you can hear it….
We want to create a relaxed vibe as well as play the most fun, upbeat, happy songs. We want Warehouse employees to give their attention to each customer, even if it’s just by saying hi!
We want the customer to be able to freely wander around our store in whatever mood they are in and feel happy and welcome, in a little bubble of their own.
Store location --->
“Where can I find Warehouse!?”
Warehouse flagship stores will be situated on high streets in popular cities within the UK and Ireland, as well having stores in popular shopping malls.
In three years time, we plan to expand Warehouse overseas by selling the brand through a pop up shop to see how it sells.
Warehouse in-store eventsIn order to engage with our target market even more...we plan on hosting numerous events in each of our flagship stores!
