THE clothing brand founded by triple Wimbledon champion Fred Perry in 1952 is to open a new store in Glasgow.
Savills said it had acquired the firm on a 10-year lease along with British outerwear designer Belstaff.
Both stores are expected to open later this month or next.
They will join designer stores including Armani, GANT, Hugo Boss, Mulberry, Ralph Lauren and Cruise.

John Menzies, director in the retail agency team at Savills Glasgow, said: “Hot on the heels of Mulberry opening its new concept store at 197 – 207 Ingram Street last November, the addition of Belstaff and Fred Perry further improves the profile of Ingram Street and heralds the most active period of leasing on the street for many years.
“The street is emerging as a luxury retail destination as upmarket brands choose to cluster together while avoiding the premium rents associated with Buchanan Street.”
