Renowned Leather Satchel Co launches pop up at iconic location

ALBERT Dock has become host to one of Liverpool’s most renowned brands after The Leather Satchel Co launched a pop-up shop at the iconic location.

Opening just in time for Christmas, the shop in the Grade I-listed Britannia Pavilion is providing festive shoppers with a taste of The Leather Satchel Co’s high quality, bespoke leather satchels, bags and accessories, which have often been seen on the arms of stars such as Alexa Chung, Zooey Deschanel and Fearne Cotton.

Customers can have their bags personalised with monograms while they wait. A range of options including gold and silver leaf, pressed leather and Indian ink monograms can be added in around 10 minutes.

Developer of the Albert Dock site, Aberdeen Asset Management, plans to bolster the current roster of high quality local and national restaurant brands with an attractive mix of evolving retail and food locations.

Keith Hanshaw, managing director of The Leather Satchel Co, said: “We want to give shoppers in Liverpool a taste of what we offer, and Albert Dock is the perfect place from which to do so. Its rich culture and historic beauty rings well with the values of our company and we’re excited by the opportunity it’s giving us throughout the next few weeks.”

Richard Wilson of Aberdeen Asset Management, said: “Albert Dock is rightly an appealing prospect for businesses. Hosting The Leather Satchel Co’s pop-up shop is the beginning of what is going to be an exciting period for all those involved with Albert Dock and the surrounding areas.”
