The Baggage Factory lands at Lakeside Village

The Baggage Factory has opened its 19th UK store at the retail outlet park on White Rose Way, taking a 1,895 sq ft unit at the site.   

The store, which will stock products to cover a wide range of baggage needs including luggage, backpacks, handbags, school bags, wallets and purses, is located between Hallmark and Cotton Traders at Lakeside Village.    

Cally Thorpe has been appointed as store manager, with a further four jobs created at the new store.  Said Cally: “I’m thrilled to be leading the team here at the new Baggage Factory store in Doncaster. As people start to travel again, both here in the UK and further afield, we’ve got a great range of luggage and accessories to cover every need – from backpacks and suitcases, to flight accessories.     “We also stock a great variety of handbags, purses, wallets, and other high-quality, value for money accessories and small leather goods.”    

The new store takes the number of operational units at Lakeside Village to 39.
