THE lingerie company fronted by Michelle Mone has announced it will open a series of concession outlets within House of Fraser department stores.
The deal will see an initial two Ultimo outlets open in Manchester and Glasgow next month with the move creating four jobs in total.
The company confirmed the concession will showcase the brand's full range of products and will be staffed by trained consultants.
Michelle Mone, co- founder of Ultimo, said: "We are hugely excited about increasing our presence in House of Fraser's stores and making Ultimo more widely available on the UK high street. With these new stores, we'll be in a position to showcase Ultimo's full product offering, while also giving consumers a seamless shopping experience."
In April Ultimo, part of the East Kilbride based MJM International business, struck a deal to run an online concession within the House of Fraser website.
A House of Fraser spokesperson said: "Ultimo is an iconic lingerie brand, distinguished by its excellent fitting and cleavage enhancing products and we know our customers will be delighted the brand is more widely available in our stores."
The brand is currently available from Debenhams, Harrods, Next, Bentalls, Fenwicks and a number of major online retailers.
Sri Lankan based MAS Holdings has a 51 per cent majority stake in MJM International.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
