Computer games retailer Game Group, with headquarters in Basingstoke, is set to open two new stores within Selfridges Department Stores in Birmingham and Manchester.
The Manchester store in The Trafford Centre will open on 17th March with the Birmingham store in the Bullring opening on 19th March, both in time for the launch of the much anticipated Playstation 3.
Robert Quinn, Operations Director said:
This is a really exciting partnership for both GAME and Selfridges. As the leading games retailer, our customers continually expect to see our stores in more locations - and locations that are convenient for them. Customers tell us that it's important for them to be able to shop in our stores, in places that are quick to get access to, and that the range of products and level of customer service is still as paramount as ever.
It's all part of our strategy to take the games to the customers - helping the industry become ever more accessible and "user friendly" to millions of new customers. With less than two weeks to go until launch, we're busy planning the opening in these important locations. GAME is all about providing our customers with what they want, and we think that Selfridges is the ideal venue to deliver this."
