The news comes after the retailer temporarily closed its Glasgow store until the end of this year with doors set to reopen in December.

Carl Hudson, GRAHAM Interior Fit-Out Project Manager, said: “The transformation of Nike’s iconic Glasgow store represents a brilliant contract win for us. It is testament to other work we have delivered in the retail sector and our team’s best-in-class approach. Nike is a world-leading brand, and we understand how important the in-store customer experience and journey is.”

All of the planning applications were granted by the local authority on Friday, April 26, 2024.
