LK Bennett lands new Shoreditch HQ

Fashion retailer LK Bennett has agreed a deal for a new UK head office in London’s Shoreditch.

The company has exchanged on a deal to take the whole of Boultbee Brooks Real Estate’s Rivington House on Great Eastern Street, which totals almost 18,000 sq ft.

LK Bennett will pay £46/sq ft on a 15-year lease and plans to move in to its new home in spring next year.

Boultbee bought Rivington House, a former Victorian warehouse, in September 2013 for £6m. It began refurbishment of the building in December of the same year.

Gryphon Property Partners advised LK Bennett. Stirling Ackroyd advised Boultbee.
