There are some big differences compared to 2 years ago
It's been a tough time for retail in recent years with two years of restrictions, lockdowns and now a cost of living crisis. While this has meant closures, Nottingham has seen a wave of independent shops opening across the city, including the regeneration of Bridlesmith Gate in recent months.
In the city centre, there were a number of retail closures including Cath Kidson on Bridlesmith Gate and Perfect Home on Upper Parliament street. The data revealed that in March 2020 there were 178 retail shops but there were 15 fewer in March 2022, which is a decrease of 8 percent. "We were in the Vic Centre for two years and there was a decline in traffic where we were but moving down here was the best move. We've only been here for a few months but it made the business 100 percent better. We have different customers who are really interested in the shop itself rather than coming in for a nosey," she said.
Owner of House of You, which opened in Castle Boulevard this year, Dani Mott, said the industry has been growing but at a faster pace than ever before. Her salon opened in August and now employs eight people across the business. Studio Eight is a beauty salon that opened on Pelham Street this November. The salon has been busy since it opened and Stephanie Dao says that while Nottingham has lots of salons, they were attracted to the centre because the team wanted to open a salon with a difference.
It's not just haircuts we are glad to be able to have again as tattoo studios are also on the up. A huge 28.6 percent increase in Nottingham was recorded over the two years.
