Natalya x Harper, a luxury floral and lifestyle brand, will open a bespoke new kiosk in Eastgate Square, Chester, this year, following a fantastic response to its recent floral installations for the opening of H beauty and a sold-out Mother’s Day pop-up.
The new kiosk will blend luxury floristry, handcrafted matcha drinks, açaí bowls, and floral event styling services to create a contemporary and immersive retail experience.
Gary Martin, director at Martin Property Group, said: “Natalya x Harper is exactly the sort of business we want to champion at Eastgate Square.
“It’s an original concept, led by passionate entrepreneurs, that brings something genuinely new to the city.
“We believe in investing in experiences that make people want to spend time here, and we’re delighted to support the next chapter of Natalya x Harper’s journey.”
The kiosk will be located at the top of Newgate Row and is designed to reflect the brand’s modern aesthetic, with soft blush tones, elegant halo lighting, and beautifully considered finishes.
Natalya Thearle-Roberts and Sarah Kelbrick, the founders of Natalya x Harper, described the support they’d received as “incredible.”
They said: “The welcome we’ve received in Chester has honestly exceeded anything we could have imagined.
“From the floral installation at H beauty to the Mother’s Day event, the support has been incredible, and so many people asked if we’d be staying.
“Opening a permanent home at Eastgate Square feels like the natural next step for us.
“While we’re continuing to grow, Chester has always felt like the right place to build something lasting.
“We can’t wait to welcome everyone through the doors and share everything we’ve been working on.”
The announcement comes amid ongoing investment and activity at Eastgate Square, with new retail arrivals and the launch of Eastgate Pop-Up designed to attract visitors and extend dwell time in the city centre.
Lisa Rogers, centre manager at Eastgate Square, said: “Some businesses just have that spark, and Natalya x Harper is one of them.
“The response from our visitors made it clear that this was something people genuinely wanted to see become part of Eastgate Square.
“We’re incredibly proud to be working alongside another ambitious, female-led independent business and to be creating a home for a concept that brings together beautiful floristry, great food and drink, and memorable experiences.
“It’s exactly the sort of business that adds another layer to what makes spending time in the city centre so enjoyable, and we can’t wait to see it open.”
Construction of the bespoke kiosk is now underway, with further opening details to be announced in the coming weeks.
