Utility, an independent design retailer, with stores across the North West, is coming to Chester.

The Eastgate Street unit, formerly owned by shoe brand, Office, has been empty since 2020.

The independent brand specialises in 'fun and quirky gifts' or humorous greeting cards, alongside designer furniture, lighting and homeware.

Vacancies are now open for team positions at the brand new Eastgate store.

The Liverpool company began in Bold Street, where the brand's first ever shop still stands.

Utility prides the brand on 'being different', offering customers an original shopping experience and 'being the go-to place for designs people will love'.

It is now covered in signage indicating the new store, which describes itself as 'new, unique, quirky cool and very best in design for gifting and pure self indulgence'.
