R E TA I L I N G I N C H E LT E N H A M The core retail centre in Cheltenham is compact and comprises the High Street, together with a number of streets running perpendicular from it, principally Promenade and Regent Street. Cheltenham ranks strongly on the basis of its retail offer (29th based on PMA) with major multiples including M&S, TK Maxx, Next, River Island, and H&M. There is also significant representation from aspirational fashion retailers reflecting the demographic profile including Reiss, Radley, Karen Millen, The White Company and Hobbs. A £23 million redevelopment of the former Beechwood Shopping Centre saw John Lewis opening a new 115,000 sq ft store in October 2018. This addition has dramatically enhanced Cheltenham’s retail offer, enabling it to attract shoppers from further afield and considerably strengthening the eastern end of High Street.
