Showroom coming to Edinburgh

Cycling fitness company Peloton is to open a showroom at Edinburgh’s new St James Quarter next year.

The 2,926sq ft showroom will launch in the spring as part of the first retail phase of the development.

Chris Pyne, head of leasing for St James Quarter, said it was “very excited” by Peloton’s decision.

Martyn Clark, international director of real estate development for Peloton, added: “St James Quarter stood out as a key location for us, as we continue to expand our retail footprint, and we look forward to introducing more people to the Peloton brand.”

St James Quarter will be home to 80 brands, a range of restaurants and bars, a W Edinburgh hotel, a boutique Everyman Cinema and a Roomzzz Aparthotel.

Retail brands taking space at the scheme include the likes of & Other Stories, Mango, Zara, Bershka, Pull & Bear, Stradivarius, Russell & Bromley, Miele, Next, H&M, JD Sports and John Lewis.

Its plan to open in October was hit by the coronavirus pandemic.
