The new shops are the first time Sky has had a full retail presence that covers all its business areas – Sky Mobile, Sky Broadband and Sky TV – and the first-time potential customers can fully sample the Sky Q experience.

The shop on Buchanan Street, Glasgow, will be the first shop of its kind in Scotland, focusing on customer experience alongside Sky’s products. The shop will be open plan to allow easy and safe interaction between advisors and customers.

The building, which has a Grade A listed façade, is located in the heart of Glasgow’s retail core, directly opposite the city’s premier shopping center Buchanan Galleries and immediately adjacent to Buchanan Quarter.

Sharon Bloodworth, Director, Retail Asset Management, Hines UK, said: "Sky clearly recognizes the value of personal interaction with their customers and the selection of our Buchanan Street asset as the home for one of their new stores demonstrates the strength of the location. This commitment from Sky is a significant vote of confidence during challenging times for everyone in the retail sector, and we look forward to their doors opening to customers."
