The Womenswear Department at the John Lewis department store at Brent Cross Shopping Centre in north west London has been expanded and upgraded by family construction and fit out company Conamar.

Conamar acted as main contractor and carried out the £2.6 million upgrade in a live trading environment over a ten week period. It was handed over to John Lewis on time and within budget.

The new shopping space includes new flooring and lighting, shopfit and decorations to create a more inviting and attractive environment for shoppers. Brands benefitting from the new refit include Whistles, Hobbs, Reiss, Coast, Levi and 7 for all Mankind.

Neil Dower, Managing Director of Conamar said: “This project was part of a national roll out of womenswear upgrades for John Lewis and we were pleased to be entrusted with the work at Brent Cross, Peter Jones in Sloane Square and the Southampton shop. Although it was challenging to provide high quality finishes in a live environment, the team rose to the challenge and delivered the project on time and on budget.”
