The American fashion giant Gap is to return back to the high street with three new stores to open in London in time for Christmas.

On 6 November Gap will open their flagship store in Covent Garden, Westminster and on 4 December a store will open at Westfield London and an outlet at Wembley Park on 12 December.

Four years ago, Gap closed all branches across the UK amid “market dynamic,” but has continued to sell clothes online.

At the time Gap said, “Due to market dynamics in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland, we shared with our team today that we are proposing to close all company-operated Gap Specialty and Gap Outlet stores in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland in a phased manner from the end of August through the end of September 2021.

“We are thoughtfully moving through the consultation process with our European team, and we will provide support and transition assistance for our colleagues as we look to wind down stores.
